Anna Jackson, Deputy Keeper of the Asian Department at the V & A,  will lecture tonight on the ‘Maharaja: the splendour of India’s royal courts’ exhibition, of which she is the curator.

Her research interest is the cultural relationship between Asia and West, a subject on which she has published widely.

As reported below, demand for this excursion has been high.  This means that this lecture should also be well attended.  The advice is to come along well before the 7.30pm start to get a good seat.
