Medieval Indian art on show at Royal Academy
The Chola dynasty ruled primarily in southern India until the 13th century.
The Royal Academy does not receive financial support from the state or the crown. One of its principal sources of revenue is hosting temporary public art exhibitions. These are of the highest quality, comparable to those at the National Gallery, the Tate Gallery and leading art galleries outside Britain.
The academy also hosts an annual Royal Academy summer exhibition of new art, which is a well-known event on the London social calendar.
