Jehangir Art Gallery

View-Jehangir Art Gallery

The Jehangir Art Gallery, a Mumbai’s tourist attraction, was founded by Sir Cowasji Jehangir. It was built in 1952. It is managed by the Bombay Art Society founded in 1888. The entire cost of this mansion was donated by Sir Cowasji Jehangir.
It has four exhibition halls. Its history is linked with the renaissance of Indian art. The complex also has the popular cafe of Samovar, which is reminiscent of the 70's socialist culture. It also houses Natesans, the country's oldest licensed antique dealers.

Entry in the Gallary is free.
