Tune in to Sheffield Museums' Facebook page on 25 August at 1pm for their next online talk.
Members of the V&A Museum’s curatorial team will talk about objects from the V&A’s Asian collection that are currently on display at the Millennium Gallery.
Discover the 19th Century Iranian water-pipe that is beautifully decorated with inlaid gold, an ox-shaped vessel from China with intricate enamelling, and a finely engraved water vessel from the Mughal Empire. Hear about each object’s use, decoration and place in wider social context.
Leading the talk will be:
- Revati Mann, Assistant Curator in the South and Southeast Asian section of the V&A. She joined the museum in 2019 from the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge.
- Dr Ben Hinson, an Egyptologist and the Assistant Curator in the Middle East Section of the V&A.
- Ricarda Brosch, Assistant Curator in the East Asia section of the V&A. Prior to joining the V&A she worked at the Asian Art Museum in Berlin.
If you can’t make the live broadcast, the video will be available to watch later on Sheffield Museums' Facebook Live page or on the Sheffield Museums Live archive page.
