The NMWA was established on June 10, 1959.  The museum developed around the core art collection of Kōjirō Matsukata (1865–1950), whose thinking is mirrored in the museum he anticipated.
Matsukata's acquisition strategies were designed to create the nucleus of what he hoped would become an evolving national museum specializing in Western art.The museum exhibits works from the Renaissance to the early 20th century, many having been acquired since the museum's opening.  The museum's purpose is to provide the public with opportunities to appreciate Western art.Since its opening, the museum, as Japan's only national institution devoted to Western art, has been involved in exhibitions, art work and document acquisition, research, restoration and conservation, education and the publication of materials related to Western art.
