Tokyo National Museum
I visit specifically to look at how sake vessels and food bowls evolved across centuries. It changes how I think about plating. Everything else is context.
Japan's largest art museum, in Ueno Park. My interest stops at the ceramics and lacquerware food vessel collections. The Honkan main building is the right building for that.
