| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Tokuma Katayama was one of the leading architects of the Japanese modernization period, for the Meiji Palace and other Imperial residences and museums. He also designed Jingu Choko-kan and Jingu Nogyo-kan in Ise City, Mie prefecture. The museums were at Kuratayama by the Shin’en Board (Shin’en-kai). This research focuses on the architecture and construction processes of these two museums, by means of analyses of historical documents and drawings investigated on-site. The main conclusions are as follows:
（1）On some blueprints for Jingu Nogyo-kan, the seal of Tokuma was discovered. This shows he contributed to the structural integrity and the shape of the central hall.(2）The design of Jingu Choko-kan was changed three times, and the plan for a fireproof building by Tokuma was finally selected in comparison to the wooden construction ones before it. To compensate for issues concerning lighting, careful considerations was put into the placement of painting and calligraphic works.
