The exhibition introduces dolls representative of the country. In Japan, dolls have been a part of everyday life since ancient times. These miniature sculptures reflect national customs and the aspirations of its people, possess distinctive regional attributes, and over the centuries have developed in many diverse forms. Dolls also provide a showcase for traditional Japanese craft products, such as textiles.
We hope that the dolls on display will help visitors to appreciate these various aspects of Japanese culture.
