Fascinating artist

Just across from Tsuwano Station, this large museum ( entry ¥800) contains works by Mitsumasa Anno. It was well worth a visit although unfortunately I didn’t have time to see the other attractions...

JR津和野駅を出るとすぐにこの写真美術館の建物が分かります。何しろ大きいので。安野光雅さんは絵本作家だそうですが、正直知りませんでした。親子で楽しめる美術館です。

名前のとおり安野光雅さんの絵本の原画などが展示してある美術館です。昔懐かしい作りの内部は感激しましたね。
