Watching the Scenery with the World Champion - The National Museum of Western Art, Tokyo

🌈Attraction Highlights: The main building of the National Museum of Western Art in Tokyo, a World Cultural Heritage site, was established in 1959 with the purpose of preserving and displaying the 'Matsukata Collection' (a collection of Western art gathered in Europe by Kojiro Matsukata, the first president of Kawasaki Shipbuilding Corporation) donated back by France🇫🇷. The famous French architect Le Corbusier was responsible for the design. 1. Introduction to several canvas oil paintings: The 3rd photo on the boat Author: Claude Monet 1887 The 5th photo Water Lilies Author: Claude Monet 1916 The 7th photo Two Sleeping Children Author: Peter Paul Rubens 1612-1613 The 8th photo The Seven Sorrows of Mary Author: Carlo Dolci Around 1655 2. The 9th and 10th photos show the comparison🆚 of the renovation process of the museum, which is worth learning from for other museums. 3. The cover photo's museum postcard has been directly translated into Chinese. 🎟️Ticket Information: The ticket price for the National Museum of Western Art is 500 yen, equivalent to 24.15 RMB. 🕐️Opening Hours: Opening hours: Tuesday-Saturday 10:00-20:00, Sunday 10:00-18:00 💗Other Tips: German writer Novalis wrote: 'The gallery is the place where the future world sleeps. Future historians, philosophers, and artists are born and grow here - shaping themselves here and living for this world.' Has the National Museum of Western Art become such a 'place where the future world sleeps'? The exhibition will pose this question to artists, who will answer it through their works. A small regret about the photo works, the 4th photo shows the meaning of the work, mainly lacking the QR code of the work.
