A community dedicated to preserving Japan's historical treasures contacted the National Museum – Palace of the Grand Dukes of Lithuania. Specialists from the Koiyama Preservation Society searched archives, museum collections, and private holdings around the world for historically significant tapestries important to Japan, and they found some in Lithuania, at the National Museum – Palace of the Grand Dukes of Lithuania.

 

With each international exhibition, the National Museum – Palace of the Grand Dukes of Lithuania reveals ever more cultural and artistic links connecting Lithuania to the major centres of Europe, while presenting previously unknown treasures and the contexts that link them to Lithuania's history. The current international engraving exhibition, From the Creation of the World to the Apocalypse, showcases graphic works by famous European artists, many of which are also tied to the histories of Lithuania and Poland. Numerous masters worked for the rulers of both states, and their works were part of historical noble family collections.
