Japanese art is filled with a wealth of flora and fauna, from familiar and adorable birds and beasts to awe-inspiring imaginary creatures. These creatures, which live and breathe in the depths of Japanese culture, were depicted not only as forms that adorn works of art, but also as symbols of peace, wealth, authority, and protection from evil, embodying the thoughts and feelings of the people. This exhibition focuses on animals and plants that originated in Chinese culture and were nurtured in Japan and examines their shapes and true meanings through masterpieces of paintings and ceramics in the Idemitsu collection.
