About the piece
Attributed to Moses Haughton the elder, this late 18th-century oil painting depicts a rich variety of freshly caught fish resting on a grassy bank. The artist expertly captures the iridescent sheen of the scales and the distinct anatomical features of species like trout and pike, set against a moody landscape of a distant river and wooded hills.
