The exhibition Kyōto-Schule des Nihonga 1986 ( Japanese 京都の日本画 1910–1930 Kyōto no Nihonga 1910–1930 ) took place on the occasion of the opening of the new building of the National Museum of Modern Art from October 26 to December 7, 1986 in Kyoto.

To the exposition

Tomota Keisen:
Autumn in Ohara, 1921

As the seat of the emperor, Kyoto was the cultural center of Japan from the 9th to the 17th centuries. After the shogunate fell to the Tokugawa Ieyasu , it settled in Edo and, by decreeing the presence of the sword nobility, moved them to Edo. Many artists in Kyoto followed the sword nobility, which was an important client. But a not insignificant part of the artistic community remained in the Kansai area: after all, the emperor and the court nobility lived in Kyoto, and wealthy merchants in Osaka were increasingly becoming clients.

In addition, in the context of the Maruyama Shijō School in Kyoto, a realistic western style of representation had developed within Japanese painting in the 18th century. This led to a, in comparison with Tōkyō, not so programmatic, loose development of the Nihonga style. The development was promoted by the establishment of the Municipal College for Painting ( 京都市立絵画専門学校 Kyōto shiritsu kaiga semmon gakkō ) in 1909. The topics were also partly determined by the basis in Kansai. The women from Ohara, the blue-clad "Ohara-me" ( 大原女 ), who brought firewood on their heads protected by a white cloth to Kyoto were repeatedly depicted .

The catalog that was published for the exhibition is 207 pages. It begins with a foreword by the director of the museum, Tadao Ogura ( 小倉忠夫 ; * 1929). Acknowledgments are followed by the review article, written by Takeo Uchiyama ( 内山武夫 ; * 1940).
