美術館
The Art Museum
A white wall lined with pillars runs straight on, deeper and deeper into the distance. Placed among the photos of the first venue, this is the exhibition's art museum, seen at full length.
About this photo
A long building with white walls runs at a slant from the near left toward the far right. Upright pillars line the wall at even intervals, looking more tightly packed the farther back they go. On the dark ground in front, a single white line runs diagonally.
In January 1921, a resolution to build a lasting hall for displaying art was put before the prefectural assembly, prompted by the exhibition that Tokyo Prefecture was to host the following year.
At the left end, lines in the shape of a pointed roof are layered again and again, nesting inward. Along an otherwise flat, straight wall, this is the only part that steps inward.
