Raffles Hotel Courtyard ~ Singapore ~ Framed
The courtyard is a unique blend of tropical garden setting and classical architecture with majestic white arches. In September 1887, a short article in the local press announced the intention of the Sarkies Brothers, proprietors of the Eastern & Oriental in Penang, to open a hotel in Singapore and name it after Singapore's founder Sir Stamford Raffles. Today the Raffles Hotel is a colonial-style luxury hotel in the Downtown Core district of Singapore.

About the Artist - Tay Thain Lin
Tay Thain Lin is a Singaporean artist who passionately indulges in the process of creating artworks as a means of visually communicating and documenting the urban space around him.
This series of Raffles Hotel paintings in his signature “ink and wash” style beautifully captures the essence and exquisite architecture of the grand dame - Raffles Hotel - a prominent landmark and a must-visit for locals and visitors alike.
“I took several trips to Raffles Hotel and walked around the hotel grounds to observe the century old architecture which is also imbibed with modern touches. It is important for me to internalise and ‘feel’ the place before I commence on my paintings”. - Tay Thain Lin
