Takarabune (treasure ship) is a paper with ship design placed under one’s pillow to ensure a propitious first dream of the year. The ship is laden with treasures symbolizing abundant harvests—such as ears of rice and rice bales—alongside Shichifukujin (Seven Deities of Good Fortune) and the magic mallet. It embodies the wish for the first dream of the year to be a lucky one. This exhibition brings together these treasure ships, each bearing the hopes and wishes of the people.

※ About Horiuchi Ebisu Collection
The Horiuchi Ebisu Collection was collected over many years by the late Dr. Horiuchi Kiyoshi (1924 – 2009). He was a local historian as well as a doctor of medical science. Born and raised in Nishinomiya, his collection consists mainly of works of art related to the deity Ebisu, other deities of good fortune, historical documents of local history and customs and manners.

I’m deeply interested in the works of art depicting the four seasons and the items that make me feel the history.
