This hand-coloured print depicts a view of the music gallery in the Royal Pavilion, Brighton. In this print it can be seen that the grand piano by Mott originally stood in this room. The Music Gallery would have been used for chamber concerts and song recitals when there were not enough guests to justify opening the Music Room.
