Davinder Singh Toor, author of "In Pursuit of Empire" and art collector joins Preet to discuss Art patronage under the Sikhs. Art flourished under the reign of Maharaja Ranjit Singh and these pieces made their way into the Western World after the annexing of Punjab by the British in the mid-1800s.
Davinder recounts his anecdotes of finding certain Art, the challenges he faces and also covers the stories behind some of the most prominent and mysterious pieces in his collection.
