Until March 2018 at Science Museum |
London's Science Museum somewhat (perhaps) unexpectedly has a fantastic (and arty) exhibition showing 160 years of Indian Photography - from early Colonial pictures to modern documentary work what I found really illuminating was the way the Indian indigenous agency fed into work with hand colouring making a fascinating hybrid.
Also noticed that one of the early British Photographers was a 'Samuel Bourne' who spent about 7 years in India from 1863.
Also on at the Museum are examples of Indian Technology and science from Tuk-Tuks to brilliant mathematicians.
