Portrait of the artist’s daughters with a cat by Thomas Gainsborough

Mary, the artist’s eldest daughter, is about twelve here. Margaret is about eight. This portrait is one of many written by Gainsborough from his daughters. Like most of them, he remained unfinished.

Only girls’ faces are registered. And, for example, a sketch of a cat, declared in the title, is hard to see.
