National Museum of Western Art (国立西洋美術館)



National Museum of Western Art (国立西洋美術館) is a premier public art gallery in Japan specializing in Western Art. It was established on June 10,1959. Its purpose is to provide an opportunity for the public to appreciate Western Art. The main building was designed by Le Corbusier, a Swiss architect. Frankly, the building is simple yet nice.
