Art on Display

After many years of working with museums and dealers in the field of antiquities, fine arts, and collectibles, archaeologists have seen an increasing need for reliable, quality, stock display materials. Archaeologists bring together what they believe is the finest selection of stock mountings and display items in the world.

The Archeological museum of Lothal, Gujarat in the country of India presents the remains in the best possible ways. The pieces of art are displayed on their own as well as among other objects. The text accompanying the artifact depends on the respective art piece. The text explains the object signifying its time period, material, function and other relevant information.

The art is displayed in different ways. Few utensils ornaments are kept in a kind of show case on the wall. They are displayed in such a way so as to highlight them and also create an aesthetical composition for the onlookers to present a pleasing visual in front of their eyes and for developing a better understanding for them regarding that particular piece of art. Then few busts are there which are displayed over the platforms raised to suitable height to create a perfect three dimensional view.
No, until now there is no attempt made to recreate the original contexts in which the art would have been viewed.

Definitely the display is successful at conveying the complex relationship between art and society since it extensively explains the gradual development of mankind towards the better understanding of art.

The museum has been influenced by recent theoretical developments in the field to develop the proper transition between different stages of development in the society.

I think the display is quite decent for the understanding of the society thousands of years back. The display has covered almost everything and displayed in such a way so as to have a proper look and feel of the artefacts.
