Sompo Museum of Art, Art museum in Nishi-Shinjuku, Japan
The Sompo Museum of Art is a standalone building in Tokyo's Nishi-Shinjuku district and moved to its current location in 2020. It holds a collection of paintings including a famous work by Van Gogh as well as works by other well-known European artists.
The institution was founded in 1976 and was originally housed in a skyscraper before moving to a new building. This move marked an important turning point in the museum's history.
The museum displays works by Japanese painter Seiji Togo alongside major European paintings that visitors can see firsthand. This blend of Japanese and Western art reflects how the institution brings together artistic traditions from different parts of the world.
The museum is located near Shinjuku Station and is easy to reach. Visitors should plan to come during opening hours and check ahead about current exhibitions.
The collection holds over 240 works by a single Japanese artist, which is a rare concentration on one artist's lifetime output. This depth allows visitors to follow an artist's development and styles across many decades.
