About the piece
Painted in 1674 by Jacomo Victors, this Dutch Golden Age masterpiece masterfully captures a moment of intense animal interaction. The work highlights the artist's skill in rendering natural textures, contrasting the soft, luminous white feathers of the rooster against the coarse, bristling fur of the cat, all set against a moody, earth-toned background typical of the period.
