Yokoyama Taikan Memorial Hall (横山大観記念館 Yokoyama Taikan Kinenkan) is located in the former residence of Nihonga artist Yokoyama Taikan, overlooking Shinobazu Pond in Taitō, Tokyo, Japan. The painter moved to the site in 1909; rebuilt after destruction in an air raid in 1945, he took up residence again in 1954; it has since been designated a Municipal Historic Site. The collection includes some 1200 objects, including 215 works and studies by the painter.[1][2]
