Quite some nice flavor of India, may I remark!

With all my best wishes and kindest regards, Norman,
Michael

Hi Michael,
Thank you for the kind words. I suspect you will have to buy one of these soon to house your wonderful collection/arsenal.
I bought this watercolour many years ago, it was painted by a Scottish artist, Alex Macpherson, in 1934 during a tour of Europe and I believe the painting was done when he was in Bavaria.
Wishing you all the best for the coming year.
Kind Regards,
Norman.


P.S. The image was taken under artificial light so the colour temperature is a bit awry.

Hi Norman,

That was easy. This is the so-called Sinwell- or Vestnertum (Turm meaning tower) as part of the famous Kaiserburg (Imperial castle) in Nuremberg.

Best,
Michael
