Opis obrazu
Two large cats are in an attic space, each holding a mouse. The color palette includes browns, grays, beiges, blues, and reds. The cats are on the floor facing left. Some books and a chest are on the left side, and a window shows rooftops and a chimney under a cloudy sky. The attic has exposed beams sloping down from the peaked roof.
