HAMILTON Art Gallery has received an Oriental art collection equal in value to the Sandby collection. The collection which gallery director, Mr. John Ashworth, describes as “astonishing”, consists of 52 pieces of rare oriental art collected from several Asian countries. It is the third-largest and third-most-expensive bequest the gallery has received.
