The Gardens of The Adachi Museum of Art, Yasugi City, Shimane
Prefecture.
The founder Adachi Zenko believed that a Japanese Garden is also a
living painting and the Adachi Museum has become famous for its
extensive gardens and wonderful collection of Modern Japanese paintings.
There are several garden settings, from a Moss, White Gravel, Pine,
Dry landscape to the Pond garden. Each has it own attraction and they
change beautifully with the seasons.
I bought the book filled with photos of the garden changing with the
seasons and I was enamored of the Winter views.

Hello:
ReplyDeleteYes, we quite understand looking at this the idea of the garden becoming an art form in its own right. Perhaps that is true of all great gardens.
This is beautiful. This is a living painting for soul.
ReplyDeleteIt looks beautiful, and peaceful.
