Changing Taste: Indian Paintings of the 18th to the 20th Century

A companion show to the Smithsonian’s Indian Photography exhibition currently on display at the Sackler Galley, this show focuses on a wide range of Indian painting, from folk studies to modern oils. Many are pieces by British artists living and working in India, as well as many court paintings and portraits from the famous Rajasthan kingdoms. All contain a fascinating depth of emotion that should open the eyes and minds of art lovers unfamiliar with the Indian continent.
