Description

Nara is an ancient capital with many historical cultural assets. It is also home to many shrines, temples, and other architectural structures that convey the former capital’s prosperity to the present day. As an ideal subject for painting, Nara has often been depicted by Japanese painters, along with scenes of Kyōto. This painting by Kondō Nobuto, who specializes in landscape paintings, features a temple in Nara in the evening. Its lower right corner lies flowers of peony, the king of all flowers, as if in praise of the beauty in the temple at sunset. Kondō Nobuto’s skill is evident in the composition rendering everything in a single image: the distant view of the mountains in Nara and the temple’s main hall, the middle view of the staircase leading to the main hall in a wooded area, and the foreground view of 3 large white peonies. This can be said to be one of his masterpieces, known as a “landscape painter”.

Our Feelings For Kakejiku


 The Japanese people have long set a high value on aesthetic senses since ancient times. As a result, the
peculiar culture which is not seen in other countries blossomed and many aspects of the modern Japanese
culture come from it. Parts of Japanese culture has been introduced to people in other countries recently,
so the number of people from other countries who are interested in Japanese culture has been increasing.
However, the Japanese aesthetic senses, which are the bases of Japanese culture, have been nurtured
through a long history, intertwining various elements intricately, such as climate, geographical features,
religion, customs and so on. Therefore, they are very difficult to understand not only for people from other
countries, but even for the Japanese people. I think the best tool which conveys these difficult senses
understandably is a “kakejiku.”
 The kakejiku (a hanging scroll; a work of calligraphy or a painting which is mounted and hung in an
alcove or on a wall) is a traditional Japanese art. It's no exaggeration to say that paintings are what
express aesthetic senses at all times and places. The kakejiku is an art which expresses the Japanese
aesthetic senses. The kakejiku has long been used in traditional Japanese events, daily life and so on since
ancient times. As a result, there are various customs of kakejiku in Japan; kakejiku and the life of the
Japanese are closely related. We can see Japanese values through kakejiku.
 The kakejiku is a cultural tradition which the Japanese people should be proud of. However, many people
in other countries don't know much about it because it hasn't been showcased as much. This is why I
decided to try to introduce it. The kakejiku world is very interesting and beautiful. We want not only the
Japanese, but also many people from other countries to know and enjoy it. I hope that many people will
love kakejiku someday.
