Pat McCarthy Cat Painting, Original Oil on Board in Ornate Antique Frame

An original oil painting by Pat McCarthy depicting a charming ginger-and-white cat peacefully sleeping among a collection of colorful books. The intimate library scene is rendered with expressive brushwork and warm, painterly tones.

The painting is presented in a substantial, highly decorative antique-style gilt frame with elaborate carved floral and scrolling ornament. The frame has a beautifully aged appearance with natural patina, wear, and character.

The reverse is finished with original brown paper backing and wire hanging hardware. The back shows age-related wear, including creasing, small tears, scuffs, and surface marks.

A wonderful piece for a collected library, study, reading nook, bedroom, or eclectic gallery wall.
