Overview of the Exhibition

Born in Kyoto, Konoshima Ōkoku (1877–1938) was a leading master of modern Japanese painting who represents the Kyoto Circle of Painters.

At the age of thirty-seven, Ōkoku moved to Kinugasa, northwest of Kyoto City, and in his later years, he devoted himself to his hobby of writing Chinese poetry.

At the second venue, the Saga Arashiyama Museum of Arts & Culture, with the full cooperation of the Ōkoku Bunko, there will be an exhibition of works and artifacts that remind us of the personality of "Mr. Ōkoku". Twenty-four of the pieces will be on display for the first time. Works by Kikuchi Hōbun, Kikuchi Keigetsu, Dōmoto Impression, and Fukuda Heihachirō, who were based in Kinugasa following Ōkoku, will also be introduced.
