Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya
Indo-Saracenic galleries holding over 50,000 artefacts — miniatures, bronzes, arms and natural history.
About this space
Built in the Indo-Saracenic idiom to mark a royal visit, the museum has grown into one of India's most complete encyclopaedic collections — sculpture, arms and armour, decorative arts, textiles and natural history under one dome.
For collectors, the miniature painting galleries are essential viewing before any Pahari or Rajput sale.
Highlights
