This exhibit displays the paintings, sketches, and architectural plans created by Japanese artist and designer, Sano Gofu. Gofu also designed the museum’s tea hut, Wind in the Pines (Shofuan).
Gofu created numerous watercolors of botanicals and locations in Japan, as well as painted fans, scrolls, and screens. A student of the famous nihonga painter SeihōTakeuchi, Gofu graduated from the Kyoto Municipal Arts and Crafts College. He became a sumi-e painter: a Zen painting technique that focuses on nature using ink washes, ink brush and watercolor paint.
