Charming Old Miniature Cat Painting on Painted Paper Mache Plate

Oh, such a cat! This a just a miniature, but this cat has quite a big presence and personality...and not an especially cheerful one I think! Painted in oils I believe quite a long time ago on what  a small plate/dish made of hard paper mache I believe, with red on the face and back and gold around the rim. Perfectly aged and completely charming; I'd be tempted to add a little hanger to the back and hang this one on the wall.

3 5/16" in diameter x 5/8" deep. Great I believe antique condition.
