The art I was able to view was Russian Constructivism. The museum reflects history of the royals. The grounds are worth spending time as well. Serene to say the least.
This museum was interesting to me for a few reasons. First, it is an impressive mix of Western and traditional Japanese architecture. It is also a structure that illustrates how quickly Japan embraced many aspects of the West, particularly in how influential Western architects were in this transformation. There is a display that deals with the architect who designed the residence, Henri Rapin. The residence is designed in the Art Deco style.
The museum is adjacent to the Institute for Nature Study a 49.5 acre wilderness park, the purpose of which is to preserve the condition of the ancient Musashi Plain that once lay to the west of Tokyo. This park is beautiful and it was a very pleasant and peaceful oasis in Tokyo.
Nice, calm place to walk around, have a picnic on a lawn or run around with children. Art museum rotates exhibitions relatively often. Some of them are better than others but I would consider them as a bonus to a beautiful garden and museum building itself. P.s. I've been here many times at different time and weekdays and never garden has been overcrowded.
Outside is great for kids when the weather is good. Inside is a no-no with young kids. Staff are pretty stuffy and it is quite a serious place. Great for adults to appreciate, stick outside with little ones
Only paid to visit the gardens (200 yen) Well maintained and pretty Japanese style small garden. A shame that there is a main road surrounding it as even on Sundays the sound of the traffic is loud
