Description of Exhibition
The Kyoto National Museum is committed to preserving Japan’s cultural heritage for future generations. To further this mission, the museum regularly purchases high-quality works of art to augment and enhance its exhibitions and provide new avenues for research on cultural properties. The museum also receives generous donations of significant artworks from benefactors. This year, we are delighted to present approximately forty new acquisitions, including paintings, calligraphic works, decorative arts, and sculptures, which entered the museum collection in 2021 and 2022. We invite visitors to enjoy each of these art objects, the latest additions to our ever-evolving collection.
