Description (Physical description)
Large watercolour depicting an entrance to a Burmese palace, possibly at Mandalay. The viewpoint is taken from across the moat and shows the palace walls with an ornate gate and bridge to access the palace. There is also a pagoda top seen to the left of the entrance. The watercolour appears to have originally been mounted to a thin piece of card, however there is only a small ripped piece of card attached to the painting.
