New York: “I was amazed to see the extra ordinary exposure granted to Indian Art under ‘Sultan of Deccan India 1500-1700-Opulence And Fantasy’ an exhibition which has been admired by thousands of visiting tourist in New York at The Metropolitan Museum” said Sandeep Marwah Managing Director of National Tourism And Transport Cooperatives of India Limited during his visit to New York. Opulence and fantasy characterize the art of India’s Deccan courts during the rule of its sultans in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries This exhibition brings together some two hundred of the finest works from major international, private, and royal collections. Featuring many remarkable loans from India, the exhibition—which is the most comprehensive museum presentation on this subject to date—explores the unmistakable character of classical Deccani art in various media: poetic lyricism in painting, lively creations in metalwork, and a distinguished tradition of textile production.
