In the 1940s, a London museum curated an exhibition of Indian art from museums and collections throughout India. When it was time to send the exhibition home, it was decided to keep all the works together and display them in one museum in New Delhi. More items were added, and today the museum is home to over 2,000,000 artifacts.
