Art of Mughal India

This exhibition is the fruit of a suggestion of George Montgomery, then director of Asia House Gallery, when he invited Stuart Cary Welch to investigate the possibilities of an exhibition on the art of Mughal India. Mr. Welch traveled widely in the orient as well as in Europe and America, choosing the objects for the exhibition and arranging for loans.
The result is the first major Mughal exhibition in Great Britain and a catalogue that is virtually a book on this little-explored subject, and presents some of the finest examples of the artistic heritage of the Mughals in India, mostly held in private collections.
