The University Museum, the University of Tokyo(UMUT)
At the College of Letters of Tokyo Imperial University, a course devoted to Art History was established in February 1914 under the name of “Second Course of Aesthetics.” The first professor to be appointed to this course was Seiichi Taki (1873-1945), who perceived the important function of reproductions and copies in research on art history, turned his efforts to the collection of photographic reproductions and the production of copies in order to form the basis of an Art History course. The University Museum actually holds 15 items donated by Ryuhei Murayama and 4 items donated by Seichi Taki, all in collotype printing which are celebrated here in this exhibition.
