Photoprint
Two sepia photographs of the South-East Equatorial Building with the drum-shaped dome at the Royal Observatory, Greenwich.
One photograph shows the drum closed, the other shows the drum open and ready for viewing. Both photographs are blank on the reverse. Otherwise, the photographs are identical, and are kept in a cream envelope.
The drum-shaped dome was replaced by the onion-shaped dome in 1893.
