The massive building in this photo is the Meiji Memorial Picture Gallery which collects arts related Meiji Emperor. Before WWII, the emperors of this country were a living god. Among them, the Meiji Emperor who was given back the political power from the Shogunate was special.

So many artists made their artworks which dedicated to him. Yet the artworks don't see the light of day these days. The building which collects them stands silently in the night.
