    Treasures from the likes of India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka are on display in Bradford’s Cartwright Hall.

    The Splendours of the Subcontinent exhibition offers the opportunity to view items presented to the Prince of Wales by other rulers in 1875 during his tour of the region.

    The gifts were acquired by the Royal Collection as part of the 2017 UK-India Year of culture, which will see other cross-cultural events organised throughout the rest of the year.
