Edo-Tokyo Museum(2)πΏπ¨
The daily interactions between Edo residents and animals are vividly reflected in ukiyo-e paintings and everyday items such as clothing, toys, and household goods that incorporate animal motifs. πΏπ¨ Additionally, the works of French painter Georges Ferdinand Bigot and the observations recorded by American zoologist Edward S. Morse during his time in Japan further attest to the close relationship between the people of Edo and animals. πΏπ¨ This exhibition, carefully curated from the collections of the Edo-Tokyo Museum, showcases the rich and varied interactions between humans and animals in the urban space of Edo (Tokyo) from the 16th to the 19th century through a diverse array of paintings and crafts. π¨ πβ¨ Tip: The exhibition is divided into two periods: the first period from April 11 to May 11 and the second period from May 13 to June 8. Some exhibits will be changed between the two periods. π #Exhibition #Museum #Japan #Nagoya πβ¨
