Butcher's Shop
Butcher's Shop is the title of two paintings by the Italian Baroque painter Annibale Carracci, both dating from the early 1580s. They are now in the collections of Christ Church Picture Gallery, Oxford, and the Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth, Texas. 
The paintings are connected to the contemporary "Beaneater" (Galleria Colonna), as they are very early examples of Italian genre painting. The large size of the Christ Church painting is exceptional for such a subject at this date, and it
of Queensland's cultural heritage.
The Roma shop was one of only six purpose-designed State butcher's shops constructed 1917-1923 - most of the State butcher's shops operated from leased or purchased premises - and was among the more substantial (full brick construction) of these.
The place is important in demonstrating the principal characteristics of a particular class of cultural places.
The place has remained a butcher's shop, and is important in illustrating the principal characteristics of a purpose-designed State butcher's shop
