Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to investigate the materials and the finish works on the exterior and interior of the Crown Prince's Palace (1908, the present Guest palace) on the basis of the technical specifications held in the Imperial Household Agency. The structure of this palace is the steel framed reinforced brick construction and the exterior walls are finished with the range ashlar masonry of granite. The lime cement mortal as old material was used at the joints of this masonry. But the terra cotta as new material was used at the bulusters and statuary ornaments were unprecedented in Japan. The joiner's finish of interior was complete and reflected the development in the past. Other interior decorations were most excellent and full of variety in Meiji-Era. These specifications used together the techniques introduced in the past and in course of construction. The specifications in the Crown Prince's palace were standardized and propagated to Japanese modern architecture with development of the reinforced concrete structure and steel structure after 1910 by the technicians and craftmen engaged in this construction.
