JANUARY STORY PART 3 :
Clara’s pulse quickened as the innkeeper revealed the painting, long hidden in the attic of a countryside inn. The dusty canvas seemed ordinary at first. As she brushed away the grime, the unmistakable swirls of Van Gogh’s brushwork emerged. It was breathtaking.
But something caught her eye—a shadowy figure, barely visible, near the bottom corner. She leaned in closer. A black cat, almost imperceptible, seemed to lurk within the layers of paint. It was subtle, woven into the background as if it were never meant to be seen.
Van Gogh had never painted animals like this—at least, not that Clara knew of. Was this a hidden motif, a personal symbol, or a sign of something deeper? And why was it so cleverly obscured?
Her research revealed something unsettling: no records of this painting existed in any archive. And the pigments in the shadowed area didn’t quite match the rest of the work. Was this cat a signature of another artist? Or a deliberate mystery left by Van Gogh himself?
Clara couldn’t shake the feeling that the black cat was watching her, its presence more than just paint. She knew she had to dig deeper.
