Shiroato History Museum 55th Special Exhibition: Enjoying Folding Screens

About this event

The 55th special exhibition "Enjoying Folding Screens" held at the Takatsuki City Shiroato History Museum will exhibit brightly colored painted folding screens (byobu) from the museum's collection all in one place. Folding screens served as household furnishings to block wind and divide rooms, while also functioning as decorative items, and works painted by renowned artists became symbols of power and wealth. In this exhibition, through numerous folding screens with gorgeous color beauty that once adorned palaces and residences, visitors can experience their artistry and historical value. The exhibited screens include "Landscape with Pavilions" and "Peacocks and Peonies" by Yutei Ishida. Please take this opportunity to enjoy the rich world of expression and aesthetic sense embedded in folding screens.
