Splendid pine trees are planted on both sides of the approach to the shrine, and the historic site you are looking for can be seen from the road (the shade of a lantern in front of the right diagonally).
There is the "Naotake Odano Monument" built in 1936 and its information board.
Yes, the appendix to "Dismantling Shinsho" was designed by a painter born in a lower-class samurai's house named Naotake Odano.

Ashamed, I had never looked into anyone in charge of the illustrations for "Dismantling Shinsho" until now, and of course I didn't know who drew the demolition drawing.
Genpaku Sugita, Ryotaku Maeno, Junnan Nakagawa, and Hoshu Katsuragawa, who worked on the translation of the Dutch medical book "Tarheranatomia", are too famous, but I think Naotake Odano, who was in charge of the illustrations, is not as well known.

As you can see on the information board, Naotake Odano was involved in a major project related to the publication of Demolition Shinsho was a scout by Gennai Hiraga.
Gennai, who was invited to the Akita Domain, which suffered from financial difficulties, visited Kakunodate to try to inspect and redevelop the mine, and stayed at a sake brewery's house.
According to Hyakusui Hirafuku's "Japanese Western Painting Akebonomitsu", where the story of the time was left behind, Gennai, who knew that the painter of a folding screen painting that was accidentally displayed at the accommodation was Naotake, invited Naotake to the inn. .
Blessed with innate talents, at the beginning of his teens, Naotake is said to have painted Kano school-style paintings and ukiyoKano school painters.
He learned Western style painting from Gennai, and later went to Edo as a special mission of the clan, "Copper Minekata Product Collection".

Naotake was assigned to an illustration of "Dismantling Shinsho" in an unnamed state that just appeared in Edo, but why did you decide to play such a major role?
Before the publication of "Dismantling Shinsho", a "Dismantling About Diagram" was trially published, but it was another person named Motoaki Kumagai who drew the very detailed woodcut sketch.
Originally, he should be in charge of the appendix of the Demolition Shinsho.

However, Genpaku Sugita's memoir, "The beginning of Dutch Studies," which struggled until the publication of the Demolition Shinsho, did not mention not only Naotake but also recommendations by Gennai.
At the end of the attached drawing of the "Dismantling Shinsho", a handwritten Chinese text written by Naotake is left behind, but this does not mean that such a hint can be obtained from it.
The reason why he was selected a lot with an existing painter, now the reason is to supplement with imagination.

Later, Naotake, the founder of Akita Orchid Painting, an eclectic painting genre of Japanese and Western, died suddenly at the age of 32 years old.
The cause of the death is unknown whether it is sick or political conspiracy, and it is still engulfed in mystery.
What kind of work did he leave if he lived long?
When visiting the monument of "The Origin of Dutch Studies", why don't you think about him, who has made historical achievements with visual illustrations?

This time, I omitted it, but in the reference book, the difference between the original drawing and Naotake's door picture is another dissection book from "Tarher Anatomia", which was a model of the door picture attached to "Dismantling Shinsho". Also interesting analysis and commentary are being developed.

Address: 11, Akashicho, Chuo-ku, Tokyo ahead

Genjiro Sugita and other Dutch scholars have gathered at Nakayashiki (currently Akashi-cho, Chuo-ku) of the Okudaira family of the Nakatsu clan to tell passers-by that they have worked on translating "Tarheranatomia".
This monument is engraved with the back of the shape name diagram drawn by Naotake, and if you look closely, you will notice that various parts are covered with iroha and Chinese numerals.
