Sompo Japan Museum of Art has held three captivating exhibitions of Italian art since 2005. The next one comes from the Uffizi Gallery, located at the heart of Florence, known as “the city of flowers.” Its self portrait collection will be shown for the first time in Japan. The show will introduce a range of artists, from Gian Lorenzo Bernini who designed the Piazza San Pietro (Saint Peter's Square) in Vatican City, Marie Elisabeth-Louise Vigee Le Brun, the portrait painter of Marie-Antoinette, Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, who painted images of radiant beauties, to Marc Chagall, to futurist artists. The true faces of some 60 artists are introduced at this exhibition which is characterized by both tradition and innovation. Such a selection can only be found at the Uffizi Gallery, the oldest art museum in modern Europe. We invite you to join us this fall to discover the thoughts and feelings held and hidden behind the artists’ colorful lives.
