The V&A Museum’s renovation of its South Asia Gallery will potentially display the long-stored Kochi Ceiling, integrating historic and contemporary art for the first time.
This significant project secures initial funding of £250,000 from the National Lottery Heritage Fund, aiming for a full £4 million by 2028 to revitalize the gallery.
Tristram Hunt emphasized the importance of the collection, stating, '...we're enormously grateful for this grant that will help create a world-leading gallery of South Asian art...'
The revamped galleries will delve into the collection's history, providing context about its origins linked to the India Museum and the East India Company.
