Pure Elegance of Eastern Aesthetics

　　Rakuiaki, a representative tea pottery of the Ashto Murayama Period (1575-1603) in Japan, was commissioned by the tea saint Chirikyu and fired by the bricklayer Nagjiro.

　　The design element of this seal is a Fuji Tochakura tea bowl from the Edo period (1603-1868), which commemorates the gift of the late Sir William C. Van Horne.

　　This chapter is a special chapter of the "Beautiful East - Japanese Artifacts Exhibition at the Royal Ontario Museum, Canada", which will open in January 2024.

Bridging the Gap Between Civilizations

　　Bridge can connect the two places, letting people cross the mountains and seas; bridge is also the carrier of emotions connecting the soul and the bond of civilization integration.

　　The theme stamp of " Bridging the Gap Between Civilizations" uses the "bridge" as the window to show the cultural spirit of different countries and cities and the significance of mutual learning among world civilizations.
