Figuurstudies c. 1890

"Figuurstudies" is a pencil drawing by Dutch artist Carel Adolph Lion Cachet, dated c. 1890. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, features simple line drawings of three figures. Cachet’s use of minimal lines emphasizes the form and movement of the human figures, capturing a sense of dynamism and energy. This study exemplifies the artist’s interest in human anatomy and his preference for quick sketches, characteristic of the 19th-century art scene.
