Brighton Museum & Art Gallery, Municipal art museum in Royal Pavilion Gardens, England
The museum spans multiple galleries containing British birds, applied arts, decorative items, and extensive collections from Africa, Asia, and the Pacific regions.
The building, initially constructed in 1805 as a tennis court for the Prince of Wales, later George IV, became a museum after Brighton purchased the estate.
The World Art collection features 15,000 objects, including significant materials from Burma collected by James Henry Green during the 1920s and 1930s.
