Sakamoto Ryoma's Swordmanship Scroll


Recommended Posts

I visited Sakamoto Ryōma exhibition in Edo-Tokyo museum this summer. I was surprised how popular figure he is among Japanese people. He is among favorite samurai of my friend and she took me to the exhibition. https://www.edo-tokyo-museum.or.jp/en/s-exhibition/special/15055/%E6%B2%A1%E5%BE%8C150%E5%B9%B4%E3%80%80%E5%9D%82%E6%9C%AC%E9%BE%8D%E9%A6%AC/

 

The scroll was on display (among lots of other written documents) but it was bit too difficult for me to fully enjoy the exhibition as so little info in English and my Japanese is not up to par, my friend gave me little info on what some interesting texts were (letters etc.). Also the exhibition was really crowded, so it was very difficult for me to try to read the old written texts.
