Unfortunately, it can be difficult to retrieve photos that were deleted from iCloud a few months ago. The Recently Deleted folder in Photos only keeps them for 30 days. However, there are still a few options you can try:
1.Check Third-Party Backups:
Does you use any other photo storage apps like Google Photos, Dropbox, or social media platforms? These might have automatic backup features that could have saved copies of the photos.
2.Data Recovery Software:
While I can't guarantee the success of data recovery software,but if the photos are very important, you might consider trying it.
There are many such programs available for iOS devices, such as Dr. Fone, iMyFone D-Back Data Recovery, and PhoneRescue. Please note that the success rate of these programs can vary, and they may not be able to recover all of your deleted photos.
Important: Before using any software, make sure it has good reviews and comes from a reputable source.
Caution: Only use the software on a copy of your iCloud data, not the original. This minimizes the risk of further data loss.
3. Contact Apple Support (Possible, but depends):
Apple may have the ability to restore your iCloud storage from a previous point in time, but this is not guaranteed and depends on their specific policies and backups. Contact Apple Support and explain your situation: Official Apple Support
I hope it helps.

Only from your backups that you keep of your most important data.
