On Tuesday, October 6, 2026, Japan’s Emperor Naruhito, Empress Masako, and Princess Aiko, visited the exhibition “Edo in Focus: Japanese Treasures from the British Museum” at the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum in Taito City, Tokyo. The exhibition features approximately 200 works from the British Museum’s collection, including paintings from the Edo period.





I love this family, but they are so strict on protocol in public, they look seperate from one another. They scarf adds just the right amount of colour. Aiko’s shoes have a little bling on the vamp. Getto seem the family together
ردحذفAiko’s jacket is way too big, and the whole outfit makes her look like a grandma.
ردحذفWhat a lovely pantsuit, the Empresses accessorises beautifully with this colorful silk scarf. Very elegant.
ردحذفIs this a facion blogi??
ردحذفI'm getting tired of seeing the Empress always wearing the same pattern of pantsuits. Mind you, the Imperial Family seems to have a lot of official duties that just involve watching performances or exhibitions.
ردحذفWell perhaps this is her signature look , just like Camilla and her dress, the late QE with her dress, coat, hat.
حذفThe British royal family also wears the same type of clothes over and over. No problem if they're comfortable with that.
حذفI love seeing the Imperial family more often. Do they do more visits than before or is there more coverage on this site now? I wonder.
So don’t comment. I find it unfair to say you are tired of what another human wears! Don’t you often wear the same clothes? Isn’t that normal? She may be Royal but she is a human.
حذفMaybe the Empress wears pantsuits so often because skirts get wrinkled too easily when she sits down?
حذف日本では今、オーバーシルエットのスタイルが流行していますので、愛子様も流行を取り入れたのですね。
ردحذفこれらの絵画は部屋の仕切り戸に描かれています。
絵の中で白と金が効果的に使われていますね。
江戸時代当時には、蝋燭のわずかな光を受けて白と金が浮かび上がり、きっと美しく部屋を飾ったことでしょう。
The painting sounds beautiful the way you describe them.
حذفAiko rarely works alone; she and her parents always stick together.
ردحذفそうでもないのですよ。
حذف日本赤十字社の職員として働きながら、お一人での公務も熱心にお勤めになっています。
日本人からすると、愛子様の頼もしいご活躍は嬉しい限りです。
I have indeed heard that Aiko has a low number of official duties. It seems that both Masako and Aiko have a habit of being late, which is reportedly the reason why they receive fewer requests for public appearances. As proof of this, Masako has almost no solo official duties.
حذفMasako was late and Charles looked annoyed, didn't he? I was surprised to see her wearing a mask during the parade.
حذفWell, the Edo Period is of great importance to Japan. It started with the Shogunates in the early 17th century, and basically marked the entrance of Japanese society and culture into a much more - well, yes sort of - modern era. Until the Meji era, of course, where things turned up a notch again, and which then ultimately ended the Edo Period. It is understandable for the Imperial Family to have a particular interest in the arts of that time. As this is in coordination/collaboration with a foreign (British Museum, I understand) collection of Japanese arts, the presence of the Emperor, Empress, and Princess makes a lot of sense.
ردحذفそうなんです。日本美術史を研究する三笠宮家の彬子様は、英国留学中に大英博物館に勤務していました。
حذفその時に彬子様が倉庫の奥で偶然発見した壁画の模写が、この展覧会で展示されています。
彬子様はその絵を懐かしくご覧になったそうですよ。
Interesting article in the Guardian this morning re Aiko’s future: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/oct/09/japan-royal-throne-lineage-princess-aiko-forbidden-ascending
ردحذفJe retransmets mon commentaire
ردحذفA mon avis, la princesse Aiko porte une tenue qui n'est pas à son avantage tant au niveau de la veste qui est trop grande que de la robe/jupe qui la flatterait plus à mi-mollet !
