120th anniversary of Junnosuke Yokoyama's birth -New Memories

To commemorate the 120th anniversary of his birth, the city will hold an exhibition of Junnosuke Yokoyama's works in its collection, tracing his artistic career from today's perspective.
Born in what is now Bunkyo Ward, Tokyo, in 1903, Yokoyama Junnosuke was an award-winning Western-style painter and a member of the emerging art movement of the Taisho era.
However, his house and some 3,000 works were destroyed in an air raid at the end of the war, and he evacuated to Gifu Prefecture, relying on his relatives.
He became estranged from his friends and lived in solitude, but in 1955 he moved to what is now Kakamigahara City and began painting again.

To commemorate the 120th anniversary of his birth, the city will hold an exhibition of Junnosuke Yokoyama's works in its collection, tracing his painting career from today's perspective.
