Search the collections of the Kyoto National Museum by keyword or category to view comprehensive images of objects that interest you.

And we publicize the images on this data base by six languages (Japanese, English, Korean, Spanish, French, and Chinese). Zooming the image, you can see the detail of the work. The explanation is in each work.
