The Power of Citizens
It was the people who lived in Osaka and loved Osaka who created the culture of the city of Osaka. While there are those who left behind outstanding achievements like Kimura Kenkado, said to be an intellectual giant in the Edo period, we cannot overlook the existence of private collectors and people gathered around museums who built up valuable collections through great insight and steady efforts. This Power of the Citizens of Osaka transcends the ages and was a driving force behind the creation of the Treasures of Osaka that should be passed on to future generations.
