At Tokyo National Museum
Media: Prints, Ceramics

As a joint project of the Musée d'Orsay, Paris, and the Tokyo National Museum, this exhibition highlights the influence of Japanese art on French art by focusing on tableware. Popular dinnerware sets produced from 1866 to throughout the 1930s with designs taken from Japanese woodblock prints will be exhibited in conjunction with works by Hokusai, Hiroshige, and others that constituted the origins of their motifs.

This exhibition is a valuable opportunity to explore the influence of Japanese art on French arts in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
