Over the past few weeks, we`ve been delighted to welcome groups of art history students from UCL and the Courtauld Institute of Art for tours of the Chitra Collection, as well as object handling sessions!
Making the collection accessible for scholarship is very important to us - a big thank you to all the students for sharing their thoughts and insights @uclhoa @courtauld
