【趣 旨】
本展示室は、海の見える杜美術館が長年にわたり収集および調査をしてまいりました香水瓶コレクションから、時代や地域ごとに分けた、選りすぐりの香水瓶の数々を、いつでもご覧いただけますよう開設されました。
穏やかな瀬戸内海を望む窓のある小部屋を一周すると、香りと信仰が結びついていた、はるか古代エジプトから今日の名香容器に至るまでの、香水瓶の歴史が一望できることでしょう。
いつの世にも人々に慈しまれてきた香水瓶は、その時代の社会や思想、個人の美意識を映し出しています。悠久の時を越えて、様々な地域からここへと一堂に会しました美しき小さな器たちが、私たちに語りかける物語をぜひご堪能くださいませ。
