Pageant in Art ; Masterpieces of Seikado Bunko Art Museum

Seikado owns a large collection of ancient documents and Eastern antiques that the Iwasaki Family collected. In the interest of introducing some of the precious works of art from the collection, we have carefully selected masterpieces from categories varying from tea ceremony utensils and ceramics to paintings and sculptures, all of which have handed down through the generations. They will be displayed throughout the exhibition, which will be divided into two terms. With the finest works of art of each genre on display, you can enjoy the competition between them as you find what makes each piece unique. Enjoy the beauty and artisanship of these rare and precious works of art.
