y To; harmonic With the billy sur
rouhdingsi of Kioto b and the pic
turesque quietudea OF sMaruyama,
where the house is located, the theme
ofSthe Japanese paintings Is the bay of
Chinu with its ripples and gulls. The
ceilings are designed to represent the
blue skies. Gold fakes are scattered
over the ground, 80 that. waves and
birds glitter as IL In bright sunshine.
The idea was borrowed from a roll

design on q hand copied Buddhis,
scripture kept In the Tennojl temple
at Osaka. Il
The painter was sMakoto Tsudzuki
OF the imperial household, and tbs
gold ground and other ornamentatiors
