Picasso Cat
This is a modern replica of the original - a cat ceramic made by Pablo Picasso. The original was stolen by a thief and broken when he was apprehended shortly after.
This reproduction was made by local artist, Bob Orlin.
The house was built by Asa Tift, a marine architect (and Confederate mariner), in 1851. In 1931 Hemingway purchased it and lived here with his second wife, Pauline, and their two sons until 1939.
Here, Hemingway completed the final draft of "A Farewell to Arms," as well as "The Snows of Kilimanjaro" and "The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber".
