Edition of 100
Built originally as the home of a wealthy gem merchant, this building in the Old Dutch Fort, Galle is an amazing example of the Art Deco style. The building, very different from any of the Dutch colonial style buildings that surround it, looks as startling now as it must have when first constructed.
