    Hi everyone!

    Saw this at an auction today. I didn't take it out of the frame but the auction must have to ascertain that it was minton.

    Do you recognise the signature, I've attempted to take it from a few angles and lights and those three are the clearest, it was very small. The auction didn't mention the signature. They wouldn't have likely mentioned other marks on the back so I'm assuming only a Minton mark was present.

    Thanks for any help

    The woodwork frame appears to be mid to late 1800s.
