Fabulous animals, amulets and demons in the Collection of David

Fabulous animals that transform into glowing incense burners, or dragons, sphinxes and amulets made of pottery that protect princes, traders and warriors. These are just some of the monstrosities you can encounter for a special tour at David's Collection, as we dive into how folk tales and sacred texts have inspired both fearsome and joyous art. Get up close to the ravenous sea monsters of the Ganges, the Quranic accounts of the demonic fruits of the Zaqqq tree, and more.

Guided tours in cooperation with Golden Days 2026.
