"Hoofd van een jongen en studie van een been" (Head of a Boy and Study of a Leg), a charcoal drawing by Carel Adolph Lion Cachet, is a study of a young boy and a leg in a boot. Created sometime between 1874 and 1945, the artwork reveals the artist's keen eye for detail and his ability to capture fleeting moments. The use of charcoal creates a sense of immediacy and spontaneity, suggesting that this was a preliminary study rather than a finished piece. The fragmented nature of the composition, with the head and the leg depicted separately, further reinforces the impression of a work in progress. The drawing is a testament to Cachet's talent as a draftsman and his interest in the human form. The drawing is part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
