Folding Screen of Arrival of the Nambanjin (Western People)
On the left screen is the people watching the unloading of a European ship, and on the right screen is a general and his party headed for a Christian church. In this screen, where the subject unfolds from the left screen to the right screen, the interest of the Japanese towards the foreign cultures seen within the depiction of splendid European people, treasures, and animals from the west, is uniquely and lively depicted. （「New Edition Grace, Beauty and Inqenuity-Masterpices of the Museum of Imperial Collections, Sannomaru Shozokan Vol.1」2003）
