Acclaimed Hindu statesman Rajan Zed, while welcoming this valuable acquisition by NGA, in a statement in Nevada (USA) today, urged other major museums of Australia to acquire more Hindu artifacts, thus sharing the rich Hindu art heritage with Australians.
Rajan Zed, who is president of Universal Society of Hinduism, further said that art had a long and rich tradition in Hinduism and ancient Sanskrit literature talked about religious paintings of deities on wood or cloth. Ron Radford is the Director while Rupert Myer is Council Chair of NGA.
