September marks the arrival of Japan's cherished autumn art season, known as geijutsu no aki. This year's calendar kicks off with several must-see exhibitions in Tokyo. One of the most anticipated is The National Art Center's display of over 50 standout works from the Paris' Musée du Louvre, highlighting a pivotal shift in Western art history.
Leonardo da Vinci's Portrait of a Woman (La Belle Ferronnière) makes its first-ever appearance in Japan, featuring the artist's subtle depiction of the subject's interiority. The exhibition is divided into four thematic sections: travel, technical innovation, classical revival, and portraiture, offering a rare window into how the world's most famous art institution documents transformative movements.
