Kind met poes III 1963

"Kind met poes III" is a 1963 pencil drawing by Dutch artist Sonja Toebes, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum. The artwork depicts a child holding a cat in a loose, gestural style. Toebes was known for her figurative works, often focusing on children and animals. This piece is characteristic of her loose, gestural style, with emphasis on capturing the essence of the subject rather than precise detail. The drawing's subtle shading and soft lines create a sense of intimacy and vulnerability, inviting viewers to connect with the child and cat's gentle bond.
