The United Palace is a fantasy, an architect's dream of excess, and more gold paint.

The United Palace is a fantasy, an architect's dream of excess, embellishment, and more and more gold paint: a Greek goddess presides over a hall lined with meditating Buddhas, Indian ascetics share the wall with fat Renaissance cherubs. Nothing really makes sense here, but it all comes together completely, courtesy of Thomas W. Lamb.
