The Queen of the Fishes: Plate 3 by Lucien Pissarro. An open book page with yellowed paper. The left page has a black and white illustration and part of a text in black; part of the heading and a symbol are in red on the upper right. The illustration depicts two young girls outdoors in a wooded area. One girl stands behind with her hands in a basket; she wears a short-sleeved dress and a bobbed haircut. The second girl crouches in front, wearing a wide-brimmed hat and long sleeves; she holds a large fish by its gills. The girls look down. The text on the page appears to be in an old-fashioned font and is written in English. The text on the right-hand side continues from the left; some words are cut off. The background of the image is the plain white surface on which the book rests.
