Schetsen van een kat 1874 - 1925

"Schetsen van een kat" is a series of sketches by Dutch artist Jan Veth, dating from 1874 to 1925. The artwork, currently located at the Rijksmuseum, features three quick sketches of a cat, likely done from life. Veth's loose lines and gestural style capture the animal's form and movement with economy and grace, demonstrating his skill as a draftsman. The sketches, executed in ink on paper, are a prime example of Veth's artistic process, offering a glimpse into his creative explorations of animal anatomy and form.
