The Genealogy of Rimpa School-Sōtatsu, Kōrin and Edo Rimpa

Idemitsu Museum of Arts, Moji
Ends Tomorrow
The art of the Rimpa school continues to fascinate viewers with its elegance and bold decorativeness. The refined esthetic trend created by Tawaraya Sōtatsu in the city of Kyoto at the beginning of the Edo period was greatly developed by Ogata Kōrin and culminated in the Edo Rimpa style of Sakai Hōitsu and Suzuki Kiitsu in the 19th century. This exhibition introduces a lineage that was inherited by those who admired and respected their predecessors and created works imitating the major themes and developing new innovative works from time to time from the Idemitsu Museum of Arts’ Rimpa collection. We hope you will enjoy this splendid show with the works of representative Rimpa artists.
