Wonderful Dutch 18th century tile painting of a cat with holding a mouse in it's mouth. Depicted right after the catch, with paw lifted showing exposed claws. The yellow and manganese striped cat looking confident ans self possessed, with the mouse's head in her mouth. An artful portrait of a pet cat whose job it was to keep the house rodent free.
