Review

建物は立派だけど・・・

Reviewed : 2019.10.01

建物はとても美しい洋館です。しかし展示されている収蔵品、特に絵画はほとんどが複製品で、特段ここまで足を運ぶ価値は感じられない。これだけ立派な箱モノを建造する費用の一部ででも、コレクションの充実を図ることが検討されなかったのか・・・、少々残念に思いました。
オアシスですね

平山郁夫との企画展(1/27迄)が開催されていたので久しぶりに来館。お天気も良いので下総中山駅から法華寺で参拝しながら歩く。展示室最初の作品は双六、ウィットを感じる。年表と共に飾られた顔料は東山魁夷の色だなーとまるで作品を眺めているようにすら感じられる。洋館の中で作品集を眺めているだけでも心が落ち着く。年間パスポートを購入して、深呼吸しに来たいなと思わせる場所ですよ。
キレイ

あまり大きくはないですが、こじんまりとした素敵な洋館は非常にキレイに保たれおり、あまり混雑する事なく気持ち良く見学が出来ました
