Philanthropist and art collector Kiran Nadar was recently conferred "Chevalier de la Lgion d'Honneur" (Knight of the Legion of Honour) by French Ambassador to India Emmanuel Lenain.
The highest French civilian award comes in recognition of Nadar's outstanding contribution to the field of art, her commitment to providing greater access to culture both nationally and internationally, and her leading role in fostering Indo-French cultural ties.
Ms Nadar, chairperson of the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art (KNMA) -- a philanthropic initiative in art -- and a trustee of the Shiv Nadar Foundation has played a vital role in advancing Indo-French cultural ties, and artistic cooperation.
This exhibition was brought to India as part of “Bonjour India 2022“, a six-month cultural festival organised by France across India as a present for India’s 75th Independence anniversary.
Legion of Honour is a French order of merit.
This honour is presented to people with 20 years of civil achievement in peacetime or to those who showcased extraordinary military bravery in war times.
