Museum in The Arashiyama, Kinkakuji area

The Insho-Domoto Museum of Fine Arts preserves and displays the works of Insho Domoto (1891-1975), the great Nihonga painter. Insho's works that varied in style (from traditional Japanese paintings to abstract art) influenced successive Japanese painters. Insho himself designed the museum's exterior and interior in 1966. In August, 1991, the design proposal was presented to the Kyoto Prefecture government and in April 1992, the museum opened its doors to the public.
