About the workLittle is known about the painter Jacomo Victors, who worked in Venice and Amsterdam. In this scene, the birds he specialised in depicting become the subject of a confrontation between animals: a dog watches a cat as it claims a plucked duck for itself. Hounds guard the spoils in many hunting images from this period. The conflict with the cat brings vitality to this still life. Pictures like this were highly popular with wealthy Dutch citizens of the time.
