Description

About The Book : Excerpt from Catalogue of the Collection of Maps, Prints and Photographs Illustrating the History of the Island and City of Bombay; The particular function of a Local, in distinction to that of an Imperial Museum has been the subject of considerable debate among experts in recent years. Before the year 1850 local Museums were almost unknown in England or in India. The original stimulus was given to the movement for their establishment throughout England, by the first International Exhibition in 1851, a movement which soon afterwards spread to India. It lost its early momentum somewhat rapidly, and during the thirty years following its rise the condition of most of these institutions, founded with so much promise of bringing knowledge.
