matplotlib.pyplot.gca

matplotlib.pyplot.gca()

Get the current Axes.

If there is currently no Axes on this Figure, a new one is created using Figure.add_subplot. (To test whether there is currently an Axes on a Figure, check whether figure.axes is empty. To test whether there is currently a Figure on the pyplot figure stack, check whether pyplot.get_fignums() is empty.)
