"Three Kittens" (1896) exemplifies her style, showcasing three feline subjects in a relaxed, domestic setting. The painting is characterized by soft, painterly brushstrokes that capture the texture of the kittens' fur and the warmth of the light. Ronner-Knip's sentimental and often humorous portrayals of animals made her works popular throughout the 19th century.
