10 MUST SEE THINGS AT NATIONAL MUSEUM DELHI
National Museum, New DelhiNational Museum, New Delhi is where I learned a bit about Art History and Ancient Indian Art forms. It is a treasure trove for anyone who appreciates art. Going through its galleries and collections is like engaging in a treasure hunt. When I was in Gurgaon, I used to regularly visit the museum, mostly to refer to its library. After many years, I spent a day at the museum. If I had the luxury of time, I could have spent a few more days, admiring the masterpieces in its displays.
Interestingly, the National Museum building was a part of the New Delhi Master Plan and one of the few buildings, that was indeed designed to be a museum.
1. Dancing Girl of Harappa
Dancing Girl & Indus Valley Civilization seals - Harappa, National Museum, New Delhi . The dancing girl of Harappa is made of Bronze using the lost wax method. There are two bronze images that were found from Mohenjo-Daro and the other one is on display at Karachi Museum in Pakistan. You can also see the terracotta toys, funeral mound, pottery, and even a skeleton of a woman from the Indus Valley Civilization site of Rakhigarhi in Haryana.
2. Nataraja in Chola Bronze
The National Museum Delhi also has some of the best pieces of Chola Bronzes on display. The Bronze gallery has recently been renovated. It has a beautiful display of Nataraja – the most famous image in Chola Bronze. There are Nataraja with and without the circle around them. However, if you have limited time, just spend some time with the Nataraja – that is the centerpiece of the Bronze gallery.
3. Buddha Relics
Relics of Buddha were divided into 8 parts upon the Mahaparinirvana of Buddha. These went into 8 stupas. As per the legend, from 7 of these 8 stupas, they were spread to 84,000 stupas by Emperor Ashoka. The only untouched Stupa is at Ramnagar near Lumbini in Nepal. Many of these stupas have undergone excavations and relics have further been divided. A part of Buddha’s relics is on display at the museum, enshrined in a Thai golden case.
4. Miniature Paintings
The Museum has the biggest collection of miniature paintings from across the country. The size of the miniature gallery and the number of paintings on display is an indication of the same. However, take my word, each of the miniature painting here is a masterpiece. Look for this miniature scroll-like painting that has the sacred map of Varanasi. I also like the self-portraits of some of the famous miniature painters next to the display that shows the tools and techniques of miniature paintings.
5. Precious Indian Jewelry at Alamkara Collection
In the middle of the vaulted hall stands a Yaksha – as if he is guarding the treasure. Walk along and you would see some finely carved jewelry in gold and precious stones. My favorite piece here is the necklace with miniature paintings on it. Imagine wearing gold and exquisite art in a single piece.
6. Ganjifa Cards
The Ganjifa cards are the ancestors of modern-day playing cards. In good old days, they were handmade and hand-painted. They carry various mythological themes – Dashavtar or the ten incarnations of Vishnu being the most popular. You can see a few of the traditional Ganjifa Card at Decorative Arts Gallery and some in miniature paintings gallery.
7. Ivory Sculptures
The Ivory sculptors are limited in availability. Ivory trade was banned and the art form has more or less died. Thankfully, museums like this have a great collection of absolutely exquisite ivory items.
8. Tanjore Paintings
Shiva and mythology are the main subjects of these paintings. Shiva as Nataraja and Krishna as butter stealing baby are the most common themes seen in Tanjore Paintings. My favorite in this gallery is the painting that shows the two celebrated marriages from Ancient Indian literature – Shiva-Parvati Wedding and Ram-Sita Wedding. I have never seen another painting depicting this.
9. The story of Indian Scripts
We keep hearing stories of how our current day scripts originated from some common ancient scripts. Even if you are not interested in the evolution of languages, stop by at one of the boards and see the journey of the letters in Indian scripts as we know today.
10. Wood Carved Doors
In the sculptures gallery amidst all stone sculptures, there is a wooden door with carved panels telling stories. I have always loved this door. The panels at the bottom have worn off with age or may it is the sign of it being heavily used. It is a 14th CE door from Katarmal in Uttar Pradesh. You see some of the best pieces as soon as you enter through the gate.
Hope this will you!!
