About the piece
This 1653 oil painting by Jan Baptist Weenix is a classic example of the 17th-century Dutch 'game piece.' The composition is anchored by the luminous white feathers of a large fowl, contrasted sharply against a deep, atmospheric background. A cat peers from the shadows to scavenge, adding a subtle narrative tension to this refined study of nature and mortality.
