Jongen zittend aan een tekentafel c. 1895

"Jongen zittend aan een tekentafel" (Boy Sitting at a Drawing Table) is a c. 1895 pencil sketch by Dutch artist Carel Adolph Lion Cachet. The artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a boy seated at a table, his legs stretched out in front of him, the perspective is inverted. The sketch's loose lines and subtle shading suggest a focus on capturing the figure's pose and movement rather than meticulous detail, characteristic of Cachet's artistic style. This work provides a glimpse into the artist's creative process, showcasing his exploration of human form and perspective.
