The fact that I ended up wearing a ton of green on St. Patrick&#8217;s Day was an unintentional but nice bonus. But enough about me!<\/p>\n<p>The exhibit was absolutely gorgeous. It featured over four hundred items from the private collection of one couple, Sam and Myrna Myers. It started out with ancient Chinese jades, followed by\u00a0Buddhist artwork and artifacts through multiple Asian cultures, and ended with what was of course the highlight for me, a feature all on kimono! It was fascinating to see so clearly how kimono and Japanese art in general was so strongly influenced by ancient Chinese art and textiles before it. Watching the progression of how something you love so much comes to be can be intensely rewarding.<\/p>\n<p>The kimono featured were primarily stage pieces and late Edo or early Meiji clothing, and they were all absolutely lush and gorgeous. It&#8217;s clear that the Myers were a couple of discerning tastes. I took over 150 photos, but I&#8217;ve chosen some of the best and most relevant ones to share here, but if you&#8217;re curious to see the rest there is a <a
