Victorian style image of a elderly servant women cutting up fish on the counter getting ready to cook, there is an open window in the kitchen by the counter where a bunch of cats are sitting on the sill eyeballing the fish she is working with, time period is during the Victorian era 1840's Style: Masterpiece oil painting
An old woman with grey hair and a white headscarf and shawl is seated at a wooden table, diligently cutting a large fish with a sharp knife. Her hands are wrinkled, with prominent veins. The table is laden with seafood: a wooden bowl holds shelled pink shrimp, various cuts of fish (including fillets and a whole fish carcass), and a slice of lemon with parsley. Behind her and to the right, a row of five cats sits perched on a wooden ledge or windowsill, gazing intently at the fish. From left to right, the cats are a tabby, a white kitten, a black and white cat, a ginger cat, and a black cat. The window behind them frames a lush landscape with green trees and a classical-style ruin under a cloudy, golden sky, suggesting late afternoon or early evening. To the left of the woman, a pewter pitcher and a small bronze pot are visible on the table. Hanging on the dark wall above her are a copper pot and a basket. The scene is rendered in an oil painting style with rich, warm tones, and detailed textures.© Isobel Blundell
