Featured French c or Chinese export or Japanese export or?!

Hello good people,

I became an owner of this beautiful black lacquer wood panel (dimensions: 33cm x 22.5cm x 0.45cm ~ 13in x 8.85in x 0.17in).

It has this beautiful drawing on one side (I am 99% sure that it is a gold paint) and on the other side it is completely black and it has some signs of age (barely visible but still visible signs - I can take a good photo of them if needed)...It has a small rip on one corner (I added a photo of that) that proves that it is wood...
I am just guessing that at some point it had a frame (or am I wrong - maybe it just had a stand)?

My biggest problem is identification...I am confused...is this a French (or European) Chinoiserie or Chinese (Japanese) export panel...or is it rather something completely else?!

The painting has a motive of bullock cart or ox cart with the lady sitting in the back (she doesn't look Asian!?) the 'driver' on the other hand looks Asian...however I am totally confused as bullock cart decoration seem Indian (or am I wrong?!...maybe Sri Lanka?!)...but his hat seems like Vietnamese traditional one...I am totally confused...so please help.



All the best to you all and a shout-out for the best forum ever!!!

I cannot wait to hear your opinions...

 

Lets see some pictures of the object itself, (edges/reverse etc) and go back and edit your post for full images not thumbnails please! OK?

 

Good spot, that's it for sure @i need help

 

Sorry for entering thumbnails I thought I was suppose to do so...from now on I will only put full images as "I need help" already guessed what it is, I think there is no need for additional photos...as she was spot on

 

Bravo!!! Even so the one you found seems to be of lesser quality of the drawing - the style is spot on! So mystery is solved...it is Burma Myanmar Gold Lacquerware Plaque...so thanks a million!!!
