This drawing shows a cat sitting down, looking to the left. The cat's body is mostly turned away from the viewer, but its head is turned back to look over its shoulder. The cat has dark fur with some lighter patches. The drawing is done in pencil and has lots of lines that go in different directions to show the cat's fur. The lines are close together in some places and farther apart in others, which helps show the cat's shape and texture. If you like this drawing, you might also like the work of other artists in the Romanticism movement.
