Tuesday 19th June,
1. Mr. James Horton, President of the Royal Society of British Arts hosted lunch for Shriji at Greens Restaurant, St. James, London before accompanying him to their summer exhibition at the Mall Galleries. Members of the RBA have extended an invitation to Shriji to become Patron of their society thus forming a link between the House of Mewar and one of Britain's oldest and most distinguished Societies. Shriji was delighted to accept.
The society was formed in 1823 to support relatively unknown artists and provide them with a premise to show their work.
In 1970 the RBA transferred its assets to become the main contributor to the Federation of British Artists at the Mall Galleries and, under the present leadership of President James Horton, it continues to pursue artistic excellence.
The Society has attracted many painters and sculptors of note including Walter Sickert, LS Lowry, Henry Moore, Peter Greenham, Sir Roger de Grey, Carel Weight and Colin Hayes.
