Six Etchings

Paul Gachet

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white etching of a cat sitting on a stool. The stool is positioned centrally and depicted from the front with its four legs splayed slightly outward. Two front legs are straight and two back legs are angled. The seat is flat and wide. The cat sits on the right side of the seat facing left, with its head turned to the right. The cat's body is solid black. The background is light brown with darker shading around the edges. Text surrounds the stool and cat. The text reads "Six Eaux Fortes" on the top half and "P. Gachet" on the bottom half. The text is written in a whimsical font. At the bottom right, there is a signature in cursive that reads "A mon Cousin Albert Pla L'auteut, son devoue P. Gachet". A small circle with a design inside is near the bottom center. A small number "95 A" is on the bottom right. The image is a work by Paul Gachet titled "Six Etchings".
