A collector’s eye
Collecting comes first.
Years of collecting have shaped our eye for line, colour, form and pattern. The works we choose for Himalaya Surprise reflect that attention to detail and cultural meaning.
A home for art
Our collection and galleries.
The collection and galleries shown here are our own. Paintings, sculptures and objects offer a wider view of the collecting practice behind our online selection.
Art and understanding
Knowledge, shared.
Our dedicated spaces for talks and courses make room for conversation about figures, symbols and the cultures behind the works. Collecting is also a way to share understanding.
Art, made personal
From our collection to yours.
The same eye guides our selection of hand-painted miniature thangkas and dzi beads: fine painting and distinctive patterns, chosen to become part of your collection or to wear.
