As much a triumph of human spiritas as an object of beauty, the Mughal tent was the brainchild of Shireen Akbar, MDE, Education Officer at London's V&A Museum, who tragically died before its completion. Thge project initially united Asian women in the UK but soon the enthusiasm spread to encompass the US, South Africa and many nations of the Far East. Finally displayed at the V&A in 1997 and subsequently in a three-year world tour, the tent is a perfect example of what can be achieved when art, education and hearts come together. (Kirkus UK)
