Summary

Description

Sheshashayi Vishnu Huchchappaiyya Gudi Temple Aihole, Bagalkot, Karnataka VII ème siècle Grès rose Oeuvre présentée dans la galerie des sculptures du musée


Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya, anciennement appelé Musée Prince de Galles (futur Georges V), Musée de l'Inde occidentale, est l'un des musées d'art et d'histoire de premier plan en Inde. 

Le bâtiment du musée, construit en 1905 (architecte George Wittet), est un bel exemple du style indo-sarracénique, mêlant des influences occidentales et indo-musulmanes. Ainsi, le dôme est d'inspiration moghole.

Le musée possède une collection de plus de 60 000 objets d'art. A la différence de beaucoup de musées indiens, sa muséographie est moderne et bien conçue. Un audioguide en français est disponible à l'entrée et des bornes numériques permettent aux visiteurs d'obtenir des informations complémentaires dans les salles d'exposition.
