Rectangular Scenic Plaque

This is a nice large scenic plaque made in the Staffordshire region of England in the early 19th century. The piece is hand painted with a superb scene including a large at least partially ruined building with two people right in the front and two more along a path leading up to the castle, some sheep on a pasture nearby and lots of greenery all around. A really well done piece of a nice size! There is a title written on the bottom part of the scene that I just aw now but I cannot make out what it says as it blends in perfectly with the brown ground. Some sort of Abby Yorkshire maybe but that is more guessing than reading. The plaque is in perfect condition and comes in a nice older frame that is gilded and has a fuzzy cloth part with another gold tiny frame toward the scene. A couple of small issues to the frame but it displays nicely the way it is and does not need to be replaced. The plaque is likely unmarked but since the back is closed up I am not going to rip it open. So the buyer might find a surprise there. The entire piece in the frame is 13.5 inches wide 11.5 inches tall and about 1.5 inches thick. The visible plaque is 9.125 inches wide by 7.25 inches tall.
