Houro Museum of art

Gallery displaying the work of Kiyoshi Yamashita, the wandering painter

Over 180 works by Kiyoshi Yamashita are displayed at Houro Museum. Most of the exhibits are pieces the artist made for the people he encountered in his travels as a token of gratitude, and they include chigiri-e images made with pieces of torn colored paper, pen drawings, painted pottery and more. One of the most iconic pieces on display is a chigiri-e called "Fireworks at Lake Suwa", an elaborated and emotional rendering of a local festivity.
