Experience the real spirit of Japan: The Tokugawa Art Museum
The Tokugawa Art Museum was established under the non-profit The Tokugawa Reimeikai Foundation in 1935. The Museum ranks as the fourth oldest privately-endowed museum in Japan.
At the core of the collection are objects inherited from the first shogun, Ieyasu. The Owari, like other great daimyo, also treasured the art from earlier generations. Thus the Museum has come to own most of the extant sections of the twelfth century Illustrated Tale of Genji.
Some idea of the quality of the collection can be gleaned from the fact that besides this early masterpiece the collection includes nine other designated National Treasures, fifty-nine registered Important Cultural Properties, and forty-six Important Art Objects. The Museum is noted further for the overall fine condition of its pieces. Moreover most objects have been handed down accompanied by meticulous family documents, catalogues and other records.
These establish clear provenance and the historical background of patronage and use for the works of art. The Museum is uniquely fortunate to hold such an intact and well documented collection. It is a trove not only of beautiful things but a wealth of historic information.
