Osaka City Museum of Fine Arts, Art museum in Tennōji Park, Japan

The Osaka City Museum of Fine Arts features a permanent collection of 8,700 artworks, including traditional Japanese paintings, Chinese artifacts, and Western art pieces.

The museum opened in 1936 on the former Sumitomo family estate, where they donated their land and the Keitaku-en garden for its construction.

The museum exhibits National Treasures and Important Cultural Properties, including Katsushika Hokusai's Shell Gathering from the Edo period and Eastern Han dynasty artifacts.

Located 400 meters northwest of Tennoji Station, the museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 09:00 to 17:00, with current renovations continuing until spring 2025.

The museum received numerous collections through exchange donations with Italy's Pigorini Museum during the 1950s and 1960s, expanding its international art holdings.
