About this work

This painting is a still life with a silver candlestick and two cats. The cats are brown and black, and they're lying on a table with the candlestick. There's also a box of cigars, a music sheet, and some fruit. The colors are mostly dark, with some bright spots. The painting looks like it was done quickly, with bold brushstrokes.
