Approximately 3,500 objects encompass the collection for South and Southeast Asian art on view in four permanent galleries. Monumental and small stone sculptures as well as devotional metal works portray deities of the Hindu, Jain and Buddhist traditions from India, Nepal, Thailand, Cambodia and Indonesia. Eighteenth century works from Rajasthan are the highlights of the painting collection while Bengali decorative arts and Pala Period (750-1174) stone and metal sculptures are another forte. Philippine materials form the largest portion of the Southeast Asian holdings but works in all media from all nations of peninsular and insular Southeast Asia are found within the collections.
