Early Photography from Bourne & Murray

Since 2007 one of the main thrusts of Berlin's Museum of Asian Art's exhibitions has been its focus on historical photography from South Asia. Alongside larger temporary exhibitions (that will in future be organised in close cooperation with the Art Library), the Collection of South, South-Eastern and Central Asian Art will regularly present to the public small displays of valuable vintage prints from the holdings of the National Museums in Berlin. One such recent exhibition is an exquisite selection of photographs by Samuel Bourne, the legendary photographer of the Indian subcontinent, and his much less well-known successor, Colin Murray.
Details of the exhibition can be found here.
