Superb Floral Still Life Plaque

This is a superb little plaque I think was made in England in the late 18th or early 19th century. It is hand painted really nicely with a very detailed floral still life scene including a wide variety of flowers and leaves. The quality is very very nice and the detail amazing. It is really hard to pin point a maker or even a country without them being marked but it is from this time period and by a good quality painter. The flowers are lying on a table or slab of wood with the background color going from a darker greenish brown color fading slowly to a lighter shade from the bottom up and from left to right. Really very well done! The piece is not marked at all so that gives us no clue as to the maker or painter. Strange it was not signed given the quality of the work. It could be Derby or something in that direction. It matches the fruit still life plaque I also have up for sale - both were done by the same painter. The plaque is in superb condition with a slight bit of wear along the very edge from where it sat in a frame long ago. The piece just under 5 inches wide and a touch over 3.75 inches tall. Really a nice piece! Please email me for more information or other pictures.

Price is $599
