Provenance Winsor & Newton’s London, private collection, High end southern based auction & Cheshire Antiques Consultant Ltd. The Persian cat, also known as the Persian Longhair, is a long-haired breed of cat characterised by a round face and short muzzle. The first documented ancestors of Persian cats might have been imported into Italy from Khorasan as early as around 1620, but this has not been proven. Instead, there is stronger evidence for a longhaired cat breed being exported from Afghanistan and Iran/Persia from the 19th century onwards.Persian cats have been widely recognised by the North-West European cat fancy since the 19th century.
