Get Back to Where Masterpieces Have Once Belonged
Himeji City Museum of Art
This event has ended.
This exhibition displays some 60 masterpieces in replications of the environments where they were originally displayed. Hanging scrolls, folding screens, murals, and other works are presented as interior decorations, and works once separated by oceans, including paintings by Paul Delvaux, which once adorned the home of a Belgian airline magnate, are reunited.
