Mädchen auf einem Sessel, mit ihrer Katze spielend Possibly 1872 - 1874

Otto Scholderer's "Mädchen auf einem Sessel, mit ihrer Katze spielend" (Girl on an armchair, playing with her cat), dated sometime between 1872 and 1874, captures a simple domestic scene. The quick sketch uses graphite to depict a young girl, seemingly absorbed in her activity, as a cat lounges at her feet. This informal work, found at the Städel Museum, showcases the artist's interest in capturing everyday moments. The drawing's loose and expressive lines lend a sense of spontaneity to the scene.
