Six Etchings: Frontispiece is a 1895 by Paul Gachet, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
A black cat sits perched on a tall, narrow hat balanced on a ladder. The hat is tilted slightly, and the cat looks off to the side. Around the scene, the words "Six Etchings" and "Gachet" are written in a loose, sketchy style. This drawing is part of a series of six etchings, and the cat’s relaxed pose on the hat feels playful. The lines are simple but full of character, almost like a quick sketch. Next, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see more of this artist’s work.
Paul-Ferdinand Gachet (30 July 1828 – 9 January 1909) was a French physician most famous for treating the painter Vincent van Gogh during his last weeks in Auvers-sur-Oise.
