Prshant Lahoti’s quest for vintage maps started about 14 years ago when he walked into a little antiques shop in Scotland. Something about the ancient topographical depictions in that shop had him smitten, and in the years that followed, Lahoti, who heads the Kalakriti Archives gallery in Hyderabad, collected over 3,000 maps from across the world, making his the largest private collection of historic maps in India. Now, 70 of these painted and printed vintage maps are coming to Delhi to be displayed at the National Museum in a two-month-long exhibition titled “Cosmology to Cartography”.
