Rather pretty Regency antique tray dating from the very early 19th century. "Tole" is the art of painting on tin. This tray features a picturesque or romantic landscape, with trees and a ruined abbey. The borders are painted with leaves, butterflies and wheatsheaf motifs- very typical of the Regency period.
