“We are very proud of our long history of support for this world-class museum, and of this year-long partnership as the ROM enters this exciting new phase in its history.”
The Sir Christopher Ondaatje South Asian Gallery presents the ROM's important collection of the artistic and cultural traditions of South Asia. Spanning over 5,000 years, each artifact reveals aspects of South Asia's long and diverse history.
Nine thematically organized exhibit areas present the ROM's outstanding collection of South Asian religious objects and sculpture, decorative arts, arms and armour, miniature paintings and textiles, originating from countries such as Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Tibet.
