An Unmissable Auction: Taikan Yokoyama's Masterpiece and More

On June 13, 2026, Tozai New Art Co., Ltd. will host a public auction in the heart of Ginza, Tokyo, showcasing an impressive collection of rare artworks, especially focusing on works by the renowned modern Japanese painter, Taikan Yokoyama. This auction is not just a chance for serious collectors, but also an opportunity for a broader audience to experience the beauty and allure of art. After all, this event promises to bridge the gap between the experienced collector and the newcomer.

Among the highlights is the monumental painting 《霊峰不二》 (Sacred Peak Fuji), created by Yokoyama in 1941. This piece is one of the largest representations of Mount Fuji in Yokoyama's vast oeuvre, measuring an impressive 143.0 cm wide. Such a size is rarely seen, with larger works usually confined to panels or screen paintings. Thus, its presence at this auction is a unique occasion for art enthusiasts. In fact, it may well be the very first time that such a large depiction of Fuji has been placed on the auction block, signifying a momentous event in the domestic art market.

The auction will feature approximately 200 carefully curated works, spanning various genres and periods, beyond just Yokoyama's contributions. Artists such as Bernard Buffet and Toshinobu Onosato will also feature their works, ensuring that there is something for everyone, from Western to Eastern art styles.
