"Kind am Esstisch mit Katze, rechts vier Skizzen eines Katzenkopfes im Profil" (Child at the Dining Table with a Cat, Four Sketches of a Cat's Head in Profile on the Right) is a pencil drawing by Otto Scholderer, dated circa 1872-1874. The artwork depicts a young girl seated at a table with a cat, holding a spoon and seemingly feeding the cat from a bowl. The artist's meticulous detail and realistic portrayal of the scene evoke a sense of domestic tranquility. The four sketches of the cat's head in profile on the right suggest the artist's careful observation and study of the animal's form, further enhancing the artwork's realism. This drawing showcases Scholderer's talent for capturing the intimacy of everyday life. The work can be seen in the Städel Museum.
