Takeuchi Seiho

  The painter Takeuchi Seiho (1864-1942) was born in Kyoto and he was active in Kyoto from the Meiji period (1868-1912) to before the Second World War. He created a new style by applying Western forms of realism to traditional Kyoto painting. In doing so, he helped to modernize the Japanese painting scene. This museum’s collection includes the monumental ‘Historic Spot of Rome’ alongside numerous paintings, letters, sketches and other material from each stage of the great master’s life.
