Schetsboek met 38 bladen c. 1890

This is the cover of a sketchbook by Dutch artist Carel Adolph Lion Cachet. The sketchbook, dating back to around 1890, is on display in the Rijksmuseum, and contains 38 sheets. The cover is made of marbled paper and is in a state of disrepair, with torn edges and sections missing. The sketchbook is an example of the artist’s working process and gives insight into the creative practice of this artist active in the late 19th century.
