About the artwork

A cat crosses a rooftop ridge in the foreground while behind it Prague's towers and domes rise under a full moon. The whole sky is covered in the fine scratched lines Alexandrov favours, and the moon sits as a soft white disc among them. It is a night scene built almost entirely from line, the cat looking straight out at you. A drypoint and etching from 2023, about 21 by 14 centimetres, titled and signed in pencil.
