程瑤笙（1869—1936），名璋，字德璋，號瑤笙。原籍安徽新安，后寓上海。初入典當為學徒，后從湯潤之學畫。早年宗沒骨法工筆花卉，中年后改變技法，參用西畫明暗透視法，講究陰陽向背，所作形象真實生動。重寫生，又不失傳統筆墨韻味，色彩秾麗，構圖別致，自創新貌，可謂開一代繪畫風氣之先。擅山水、人物，特別是花鳥、走獸畫得尤為精致，他畫的猿猴形態各異，非常準確生動，在近現代畫家中可以說無幾人能及，可惜因名氣不大，幾乎被歷史湮滅，他的藝術成就未能得后人很好的挖掘與整理。傳世作品有《貓》（藏故宮博物院），《鄉景圖》（藏上海博物館）等。1936年墨緣堂出版《程瑤笙畫冊》影印本，1941年商務印書館出版《程瑤笙先生遺作精品集》二冊。

程瑤笙筆下的貓，寫實感很強，此畫長：83.9cm，寬：8.2cm，平尺為3.4，更多的是體現了東方的神韻，給觀者一種古色古香的感受。他融匯中西，博采眾長，擅長采用西方水彩畫的“濕畫法”與傳統中國畫的“沒骨點染”，以此表現出貓的形體結構、皮毛光澤。惟妙惟肖，藝術效果極佳。
他畫的魚姿態千變萬化，形神各異：有的是鯉躍龍門，有的是蓮下嬉戲，他多種手法巧妙運用，風格獨特，因此馳名中外。
