Mission:

The mission of the Himalayan Art Resources is to create a comprehensive research database, a virtual museum, of Himalayan and Tibetan art:

Firstly, the Website exhibits images of art from museum, university and private collections around the world.

Secondly, the Website catalogs all Himalayan art objects that are known through past or present collections or publications.

The database identifies and catalogues paintings, sculpture, prints, initiation cards and murals. When a digital image of an object is not available, the database uses a placeholder image. Book cover images are used for publications and generic placeholders for collections.

Submitting Images

Museums, institutions and private collectors of Himalayan art are invited, and encouraged, to submit images for cataloguing and display.

To submit an image for consideration, please send a digitized image, by e-mail or CD, preferrably 1000 dpi in size. Additionally, you must submit a written statement attesting to your ownership of either the object itself or the rights to the image being submitted.
