As the museum’s first-ever exhibition dedicated to shunga (erotic art), this exhibition proudly presents the public debut of Chigo Sōshi, a legendary shunga masterpiece created in the early 14th century.

The exhibition features a diverse range of works, including pieces themed around "love" by renowned artists such as Uemura Shoen and Kaburagi Kiyokata. It also showcases Koshibagaki Zoshi (The Tale of the Brushwood Fence)—one of Japan’s oldest known pieces of shunga, copied here by the Edo-period master Tani Buncho—alongside hand-painted shunga by Tsukioka Settei and others, and Katsushika Hokusai’s definitive masterpiece, Nami Chidori (Wave and Plovers).
