The Fukuoka City Museum is known for its collection of the Kuroda family treasures, mainly from the war period (Momoyama Period to the early Edo period) - war-related items considered to be both historically and culturally significant.
This exhibition, however, introduces some unique articles which are usually left untouched and stored deep inside the museum’s storage room. They even make curators wonder why they were included in the Kuroda family’s collection in the first place. Nevertheless, viewing these articlesdoes put a smile on people’s faces. In the Fukuoka Clan in the Edo period, the parade of the three gods, (Daikoku, Ebisu, and the male and female gods of good luck) passed through the Fukuoka region to pay a courtesy visit to the Kuroda family, the lords of the Fukuoka Clan, who resided in the castle. Based on this historical event, this exhibition introduces some of the Kuroda family’s articles related to the seven deities, and other mysterious, holy and interesting articles of the “seven deities of the Kuroda family”. What’s more, the exhibition also introduces some traditional drawings and literature with auspicious themes, to celebrate the New Year. Please take your time to enjoy viewing these unique Kuroda treasures, to mark an excellent start to the New Year!
