For the first time this will make the artistic assets of SOAS accessible to a wider audience, including students, scholars, and members of the general public. The exhibition will bring together a broad range of interesting and beautiful objects from across Asia and Africa that are at present known only to a few specialists.
Among this wealth of material are illustrated Islamic manuscripts, including a luxurious Mughal copy of the Anvar-i Suhayli, a book of animal fables; Chinese and Japanese paintings and prints; varied ceramic objects from the Middle East and East Asia; decorative Buddhist manuscripts and sculptures from South-East Asia; contemporary African paintings and textiles; and important archaeological collections from East Asia, South Asia and the Middle East. Many of these objects are true treasures whose display is long overdue. The content will be periodically rotated, which will ensure the vitality and continued appeal of the permanent display.
