In the 19th century, French painter Rousseau appealed to the government to protect the beautiful Fontainebleau Forest from the advance of industrial development and deforestation. Moved by his conviction, many artists including Millet settled in the nearby village of Barbizon, seeking harmony between nature, art, and spirituality. They later became known as the Barbizon School, and their work had a profound influence on the birth of Impressionism.
A sacred place where nature and culture blend in such harmony can be found in Japan as well—Kyoto. The city still preserves its deep history, rich culture, natural beauty, and spiritual depth. The sound of flowing water, the moss-covered gardens, and the fleeting beauty of falling petals quietly awaken things we tend to overlook in daily life.
I especially enjoy guiding people to Kyoto’s hidden spots—peaceful places far from the crowds. Wouldn't you like to rediscover the feeling of living close to nature in these quiet corners of the city?
