This meticulously curated selection includes a diversity of artworks spanning a large range of mediums and epochs epitomising the artistic brilliance of Islamic and Indian civilisations. Sotheby’s is honoured to present The Belgrave Collection, a selection carefully curated over 40 years with a discerning eye. Two further unique collections highlight the zenith of Indian miniature painting, with 31 works from a prestigious European collection focusing on painting from the Rajput and Pahari courts, and a group of Mughal pictures from the collection of Geoffrey M. and Carol D. Chinn, led by four splendid illustrations from Prince Khurram’s album.
The works featured here and more are on view in the galleries at Sotheby’s London, 19 – 23 April, with the Arts of the Islamic World and India auction taking place on 24 April 2024.
