Contents

 The Imperial Household Agency Sannomaru Shozokan opened in Heisei 5/1993/11, with the aim of carefully preserving and managing these at facilities with a well-equipped environment, as well as carrying out surveys and research, as well as exhibiting and opening them to the public, when art items such as paintings, calligraphy, and crafts handed down from generation to generation by the Imperial Family were donated to the country in 1989/6, Heisei 1.
Currently, the Maru Shozokan of Imperial Household Agency 3 is under construction, and since sufficient exhibitions cannot be performed at the same museum, exhibitions are being held in various places so that more people can see the collection even during this time. In Reiwa 4/2022, approximately 60 works from the Imperial Household Agency Sannomaru Shozokan and about 40 photographs showing Okinawan landscapes, schools, portraits, etc. of people from the Meiji period will be exhibited in Okinawa, which is the prefecture where the national cultural festival is held.
Starting with a series of paintings drawn by Yamamoto Hosui, who is known as a pioneer of Western-style painting in Japan, works by artists associated with Okinawa, masterpieces such as Maruyama Okyo's “Zhang Fei Zu”, Katsushika Hokusai's “Watermelon Map”, works with the theme of gagaku in which the imperial family was deeply involved, and many traditional costumes used in ceremonies will be introduced.
