Gewelf en bloemenmotieven c. 1905

"Gewelf en bloemenmotieven" is a pencil sketch by Dutch artist Carel Adolph Lion Cachet, created around 1905. This preliminary drawing, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, depicts an architectural detail: a vaulted ceiling framed by two vertical beams, and a floral motif. The light pencil strokes create an airy, almost ethereal quality, revealing Cachet's keen eye for detail and his interest in the interplay between structure and organic forms. The sketch is likely a preparatory study for a larger work and offers insight into Cachet's creative process.
