A special event at the Shouhaku Art Museum in Nara running until November 29th looks at the work of three Uemura's - Uemura Shoen, Uemura Shoko, and Uemura Atsushi. Uemura Shoen's work often depicted bijin -ga (beautiful women), and Uemura Shoko and Atsushi's works center around kachō -ga (paintings of flowers and birds).
Despite the differences in artistic styles between the three Uemura's, there is definitely a common thread throughout all the works that seems to capture the essence of Japanese painting.
Adult admission to the event is priced at 820 yen.
