A
building
directly
in
front
of
the
Tokyo
National
Museum.
On
the
1st
floor,
you
can
trace
the
history
of
Japanese
art
by
genre
such
as
sculpture,
sword,
Ainu
and
Ryukyu,
and
on
the
2nd
floor,
by
era.
Although
the
exhibition
content
is
a
little
thinner
than
other
buildings,
you
can
get
a
big
picture
of
the
history
of
Japanese
art.
In
addition,
there
are
many
lockers
at
the
entrance
and
there
are
many
museum
shops,
so
I
think
it
is
the
best
place
to
start
and
end
the
museum.
Opened
in
1938,
designed
by
Jin
Watanabe.
It
is
a
Japanese-Western
eclectic
building
decorated
with
a
Japanese-style
motif
of
reinforced
concrete,
but
the
large
roof
of
the
reddish-brown
tiles
gives
an
impression
of
China,
and
it
can
be
said
that
it
is
a
multinational
attractive
building.

東京国立博物館の真正面にある建物。
1階は彫刻、刀剣、アイヌと琉球などのジャンル別に、2階は時代別に日本の美術史をたどることができます。他の建物に比べて、若干薄い展示内容ではありますが、大きな流れ、日本美術史の全体像を把握できます。また、エントランスにはロッカーも多数あり、ミュージアムショップも充実していますので、博物館の各建物を巡る起終点に最適だと思います。
昭和13年(1938年)開館、設計は渡部仁。鉄筋コンクリートの和風っぽいモチーフをデコレーションした和洋折衷建築ですが、赤茶けた瓦の大屋根からは中国っぽい印象も受け、多国籍な魅力の建物だといえます。
