日本で初めて行われた油絵の展覧会会場は、浅草寺の境内に現れた見世物小屋だった。その当時の浅草は、日本で最も活気に満ち、新しい文化を発祥する場であった。残念ながら当時の絵は残っていないが、わずかに残る資料をもとに徹底検証し、小屋もろとも再現してみた。明治７年、「美術」という言葉が作られたばかりの時代の最先端の絵画を堪能してほしい。　
The first oil painting exhibition in Japan was held in a freak show tent in the grounds of Sensoji Temple. At the time, Asakusa was the most vibrant area in Japan, and the birthplace of new culture. Unfortunately, no paintings from that time remain, but we have thoroughly researched the few remaining documents and recreated the show tent. Enjoy cutting-edge paintings from a time in 1874, when the word “art” had just been coined.
