Hi Yoshiyuki, I am impressed by this wonderful album. The garden is beautiful, but I am especially impressed by the beautiful Ukiyo-e art and the folding screens. These very appealing images of the life of such a long time ago are excellent and they are doing something with me! Thanks so much for taking the time to view and comment my Terschelling album, which I appreciate very much! Best wishes, Tjebbe

Yoshiyuki, an inspired combination to put these beautifull flower together with some beautifull Japanese artwork. Did you know that Monet was a noted collector of Japanese art?, it is in several of the rooms in the house with some walls virtually covered. Unfortunately no photos allowed in the house. It was a shame I had such limited time there but it was a 2 hour bus ride each way from the coast, well worth the trip though. Eric
