物語の中へ―源氏と伊勢―

2021年2月14日(日)〜3月28日(日)

所蔵品の中から、平安時代の古典文学の双璧をなすと称される『源氏物語』と『伊勢物語』に関する作品を選び展示します。この二つの物語は、それぞれ書写され、あるいは印刷されることによって、長く読み継がれてきました。それに加えて、物語のさまざまな場面が、時代ごとに特色をもつ表現形式や意匠によって絵画化されてきたことにより、物語の享受層を広げ、物語の鑑賞を豊かなものにする役割を果たしてきたといえます。
本展覧会では、『源氏物語』と『伊勢物語』をそれぞれに題材にして制作された、屏風や色紙、扇面、版本、浮世絵版画、かるた等、多彩な作品を展示します。物語の中へ誘われ、その魅力に満ちた世界をご堪能ください。

Regular Exhibition

Into the World of Classic Stories—The Tales of Genji and Ise

February 14 (Sun.), 2021 – March 28 (Sun.) (37 days)

This exhibition features selected works from our collection that are related to The Tale of Genji and The Tales of Ise, both of which are highly recognized as the top two works of classic literature of the Heian Period. These stories have been transcribed and printed a number of times throughout the ages to be cherished by literature fans. In addition, various scenes from both stories have been adapted as artworks in different forms, styles and designs that signify the time of creation. This has helped attract a wider audience to enjoy the stories in a variety of ways. Items displayed in this exhibition are quite diverse, ranging from paintings on folding screens, paper and fans, to woodblock prints (e.g. ukiyoe and books) and karuta cards. Invite yourself into a world of attractive stories.

*Guided tours are scheduled to be held four times during the exhibition period.
