Wondering what size art print to choose? Here's a quick guide to help you decide what will look best in your space.

5×7 in (13×18 cm)

Perfect for small shelves, tight corners, or as part of a gallery wall. These are also great for gifting and easy to frame in standard off-the-shelf frames.

8×10 in (24×30 cm)

Great for smaller spaces like desk nooks, shelves, or gallery wall fillers. Easy to mix and match, and fits in standard store-bought frames.

12×16 in (30×40 cm)

A versatile mid-size option that works well in entryways, hallways, or above a side table. Big enough to stand alone but also great paired with other pieces.

16×20 in (40×50 cm)

Makes more of a statement. Ideal for feature walls, mantels, or anchoring a room with one bold piece. A good size when you want the details to really show.

We also offer a few prints in larger formats, and we’re happy to discuss custom sizing for specific pieces. Just reach out if you have something in mind!

All sizes refer to the physical dimensions of the paper. Our prints do not include white borders—they're designed to run edge-to-edge for a clean, contemporary look. Each one is printed on heavyweight, archival-quality fine art paper using museum-grade pigment inks, so they stay crisp and vibrant for years to come.

Looking for framed options? You can get any of these sizes pre-framed in our solid oak frames—available in black, white, natural wood, and walnut. Framed prints are currently available only in the US and Canada. Learn more about our frames.

Brünnhilde the Cat started life as a 1936 photograph by Adolph Edward Weidhaas. A plucky tabby kitted out as the Valkyrie heroine from Wagner's Ring Cycle. The black-and-white photo has been floating around the internet for years, and Catherine Hébert finally gave it the full colour treatment it deserved.

Every detail from the photograph is here. The fierce sideways stare, the slightly unimpressed expression, the confident posture of a cat who knows she's in charge. But now you get golden scale mail catching the light, a deep red cape draped over one shoulder, and that plumed helm glowing warm against a rich green background.

She looks like she's about to storm Valhalla or knock your water glass off the table. Probably both.

The painting is based on a real photograph from nearly 90 years ago. Someone actually dressed their cat in a tiny Valkyrie costume in 1936, and honestly, we owe them everything.

ABOUT ME

I'm Catherine Hébert, an artist based in Montréal. I've spent almost two decades in visual effects, working on films and TV as a concept artist and eventually a VFX supervisor. But I never stopped illustrating, so I started The Ugly Cat Studio to share the work I actually want to make.

Paper & Printing

Each print is made to order and produced by trusted fine art print partners across North America and Europe. We use giclée printing on Epson Hot Press Bright White paper, with archival inks for rich colour and long-lasting quality.

This archival, 100% cotton smooth hot press paper provides a bright white point and high contrast ratio, making it perfect for fine art prints without compromising on look or feel. Its acid, lignin, and chlorine-free composition ensures deep, rich blacks and an exceptionally wide color gamut.

Please note: Colours may vary slightly from what you see on screen, since monitors and devices display colour differently.

Frames

Our solid oak frames are designed to complement the artwork, with a slim, clean profile that feels refined but sturdy. Each frame is fitted with tempered glass for clear, durable protection.

Available in black, white, oak, and walnut, they arrive mounted and ready to hang right out of the box.

Right now, frames are only available in the US and Canada. We're looking into making them available in more regions, and will share updates if and when that becomes possible!
