Photo supplied from John Breen's private collection.

There is also a copy of the same photo in the Royal Asiatic Society collection in London.

A Bonhams catalogue dates it to the 1880s: http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/11946/lot/28/

The number on the policeman's collar is 132 - can anyone identify the year from that?

I'd also be very interested to know if anyone recognises the location.
