Buckingham Palace: the Pavilion Breakfast Room dated May 1850
RCIN 919918
The Breakfast Room was furnished with materials from Brighton Pavilion, which the Queen had sold two years earlier. Among the imported fittings were the chimney piece, the chandelier and the wall paintings. The remaining decorations, including the dragon painted on the ceiling, were carefully designed to complement the oriental theme.
