The Japanese Legacy Symposium & Grand Tour

[Luc Taelman]

After our visits to the Stibbert Museum in 2014 and 2016, we move to Leiden and Amsterdam for our third edition of the Japanese Legacy Symposium.
The first edition most of us met for the first time in person. Those days were realy unforgettable for all the attendees. The second edition was even better, great lectures, and great company.
For this third edition, we did not want to copy ourselves, but we made a complete armor weekend of it, including an armor fair on sunday, a noh-performance and so much more. Please let us know if you are interested to attend!

we also organise a Japanese Armor Fair in combination with the Japanese Legacy Symposium.
It is possible to visit the fair without participating the symposium.

Several topdealers will be present!

I was very much surprised this morning when I received my monthly Art magazine ‘Collect’. 6 pages are handeling about our Japanese Legacy Symposium and the Leiden Exhibition.

Very cool, Luc! I also see that they've featured "my" maedate which you are safekeeping!

[Luc Taelman]

Sorry John, you can take care of ‘my ‘ armor, but Orikasa sensei’s kami is in it

[Luc Taelman]

In fact, this fantastic journey started in 2013 in Rotterdam.
I am really looking forward to meet all of you again in Leiden!

[Uwe Sacklowski]

I think I still have this jacket....
