Rabindra Bharati University Museum

Rabindra Bharati University Museum Review

Rabindranath Tagore's cheerful, lemon-yellow home opens onto tree-lined galleries on the second floor. Inside, the university fosters cultural activities and maintains a display of paintings by artists of the Bengali school. The nerve center of Calcutta's intellectual activity around the turn of the 20th century, Tagore's abode now holds memorabilia, including beautiful sepia photographs of the poet (quite fetching as a young man), his family, and his contemporaries.
