Very interesting cannon, beautifully casted. The inscriptions are both in Manchu (left) as traditional Chinese (right).
Thanks for sharing Gustav!

I wonder if there is any possibility to have a close up of the inscriptions? Could be interesting to see if it was actually linked to the forbidden city and if it is dated.

Regards,
