Special Exhibition

Tsukishima Karukaya —the world of the naive art from picture scrolls and narrative paintings

June 11th (Tue)–August 18th (Sun), 2013

In the history of Japanese fine arts it could be said that a picture scroll ‘The Tale of Tsukishima’ and a picture book ‘Karukaya’ (from the collection of the Suntory Museum of Art) in the Muromachi period have the most naive and simplest beauty. This exhibition centers these two paintings. In addition, picture scrolls like Otogi-zoshi, screen panels like the tale of Soga brothers, Buddhist narrative paintings like ‘Ten Kings of Hell’. The world of the naive art from our museum collection would be on display.
