The latter was the collection of Indian miniatures of the artist Howard Hodgkin whose own work was inspired by India. Of the later paintings, I enjoyed Brahma, Creator of the Universe (1720). I love Howard Hodgkin description of drawing as ‘the most naked of visual arts.’
The V&A and the Ashmolean both have fine collections.

In the V&A my favourite is this C12th Shiva from Tamil Nadu
Travelling around the UK you will stumble across many Sezincote http://www.sezincote.co.uk/ is a bit of India planted in Gloucestershire. Brighton Pavilion is a delightful mixture of India and China . In Bristol you bump into the statue of Raj Mohan Roy where the father of modern India died . In the little village of Stoke Row in Oxfordshire you can visit the Maharaja’s Well. I rarely meet Indian tourists interested in these things. Why is that?
