Studies van katten 1821 - 1891

"Studies van katten" is a collection of pencil sketches by Dutch artist Guillaume Anne van der Brugghen, created sometime between 1821 and 1891. The artwork features various poses of cats, capturing their unique anatomy and movements. These studies are a testament to the artist's keen observation and skill in capturing animal subjects. The quick, gestural lines and the use of shading give the viewer a sense of the artist's process of studying and understanding his subject matter. The loose, unpolished aesthetic of the sketches contrasts with the detailed and finished paintings often produced by artists during this period.
