In a celebration of cultural heritage, Khalili Collections has unveiled a captivating new publication titled: Hajj and The Arts of Pilgrimage Essays in Honour of Nasser David Khalili. This book offers an extensive exploration of the Hajj, one of the world’s largest religious gatherings, and highlights the artistic expressions inspired by this spiritual journey.
The volumes are drawn exclusively from the Khalili Collection’s Hajj and the Art of Pilgrimage, which comprises over 5,000 artefacts related to the Hajj. Spanning centuries and regions, these artefacts beautifully illustrate the deep cultural and spiritual connections associated with the pilgrimage from the eighth century to the present day.
As the Khalili Collections continues to preserve and promote the rich tapestry of global artistic heritage, this publication stands as a testament to the enduring importance of Hajj in shaping cultural identities across the globe.
