Was there a child, grandchild, or great-grandchild near me? Or I wonder if he was a grandson.
I've been sitting for a long time~ How long should I sit?
But I can't get old at all, how many have I become?
I'm a lion statue of Mitsukoshi.
The photo shows the front entrance of Ginza Mitsukoshi. The statue was born in 1914 when it was set up in front of Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi Main Store.
The lion statue was ordered by U.K. when the manager of the time, Ousuke Hibi, visited Europe and the United States to open a department store.
It took 3 years to complete. It seems that there is a wish that Mitsukoshi will reign in the department store industry like the King Lion of Beasts.
The lion statue at the head office is 102 years old. This is a lion statue of Ginza Mitsukoshi. I was born in 1972 and is 45 years old. I think it's probably a child or a grandchild who is beside him.
I'll welcome you to Mitsukoshi.
Please come by all means. I'll be waiting for you.
