The Museum Yamato Bunkakan

Art Museum
The Namako-style walls of The Museum Yamato Bunkakan are evocative of the architecture of the Momoyama Period. Its corridors are supported by imposing wooden framework reminiscent of the kitchen of a Zen monastery, while the soft light from the paper screen doors gives the interior a dignified atmosphere. The museum's collection, which centers primarily on paintings, writings, sculptures, ceramics, lacquer work, metalwork, textiles, and glasswork from Japan, China, and Korea, includes four National Treasures, 31 Important Cultural Properties, and 14 important art objects. The museum also holds exhibits on various themes and is a place where beautiful seasonal flowers can be enjoyed all year long.

    静な住宅街を抜けて美術館の入口に立つと、様々な樹木が生えた小高い丘と緩やかな坂道が眼前に。気候がよければ一段と華やかだと思います。美術館自体は今回は企画展、竹の中庭を挟んで右に梅、左に桜をモチーフにした日本画、焼き物等様々な作品が展示されていました。展示数は多くないので一つ一つじっくり鑑賞できました。
