Paula Institute of Culture was established in 1976 (Showa 51) and conducts research activities related to makeup, such as the history of makeup in the east and west, the customs of each era, and the view of beauty, with the keyword "cosmetic, women, and aesthetics." It seems that the results are transmitted in the form of publications, research reports, exhibitions, etc.
In this commemorative exhibition, "Japanese fine figure" is introduced on four themes: "marriage", "original clothing", "sunny (hale) outfit", and "Kichijo pattern".
From the collections of the Paula Institute of Culture, there are about 170 makeup tools and ukiyo-e paintings, such as "Electric mirrors, circular mirror boxes and mirrors", "Electric black tools", "Takasago character mirror", "Red and white plum treasure trove pattern box", "Hakurinkochi Sho-chiku-bai Tsurugame pattern Uchikake" and "Sho-chiku-bai Tsurugamebirabira-shi" and "Kan".
The preservation of the exhibits is very good, and each one is very beautiful.
