The beauty of the Rosanjin Kitaoji

[Marsha Horiuchi of Edo] April 19, 2016 16:00

At the Mitsui Memorial Museum, Mr. Rosanjin Kitaoji (ROSANJIN), who is well known for his pottery.
Japanese tableware is on display along with paintings and lacquerware.

 

Many Japanese tableware made from the Hoshioka kiln, which opened in Kita-Kamakura, have bold forms.
The design also incorporates plenty of nature, using the surface area of the pottery as much as possible.
It's something. Crab, grass in the wild grass, grass, colorful flowers and branches, red fat turnips,
In particular, there is something that attracts the heart of the "chopping board".

 

I feel that "the vessel is a food kimono" is a word that can only be said to this Lushan man.

 

It is held until 6/26, so please carry your feet if you like.

Mr. Suitengu has come back!

[Marsha Horiuchi of Edo] April 14, 2016 18:00

On April 8, in Nihonbashikakigaracho, the famous god of safe delivery, "Suitengu-san"
New shrine hall looks like a modern and new wood with a seismic isolation structure, at the intersection below it.
It is open along with the Suitengu-mae police box with a kind feeling.

In the first year of Edo's Bunsei (1818), the Arima family of the Kurume clan was recommended for a spirit from the Kurume clan.
It is said that this construction project was promoted because the 200th anniversary of 2018 was reached.

92nd East

[Marsha Horiuchi of Edo] April 13, 2016 18:00

Shimbashi Enbujo, located in Ginza 6-chome, has become the most gorgeous season.

In contrast to Gion's "Kyo-dori" (starting from the Edo period), a flower town in the ancient capital of Kyoto.
It was just started in the Taisho era as a place for Shimbashi geisha to present their performances.

 
I think there are also geishas in Ningyocho, which was a flower district in the past.
I think this Shimbashi is the most common in Tokyo.

 

This year's event will be held on May 19-22.

Reservations will begin today on April 13th.

I think it's a good idea to experience a stylish atmosphere once.
Two years ago, I was invited to a sushi during the intermission and watched "East Odori".

You can draw lotus flowers like this!

[Marsha Horiuchi of Edo] April 1, 2016 14:00

Cherry blossoms are called spring messengers, and for some reason I think they are lovely flowers.
After feeling the warmth, it blooms in about two weeks, Kiyoshi,
It may be said that he has the temperature of a samurai.

 

Today, I saw lotus flowers in the gallery of "Chibagin" on the 4th floor of COREDO Muromachi 3 in front of Mitsukoshi.
Lotus is a very strong flower that has large leaves and flowers in a large pond, which is related to the Buddha.
I think it's because of that.
It was painted by a painter living in Chiba Prefecture, and was painted with gentle colors like a picture book of a small child.
It is on display until 4/3.

 

Thank you for the first day of spring.
