He was sent to gather information on Japan, the trade situation, and the political system.\u00a0 At that time foreigners were not allowed to leave the island, however after Siebold had cured an influential local official, he was given permission to open a clinic on the mainland and make house calls to the sick.\u00a0 Immediately after arriving, Siebold contacted physicians and natural scientists, some of whom spoke and wrote Dutch and were known as \u2018<em>Rangakusha<\/em>\u2019 or Dutch experts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Siebold\u2019s home rapidly became a meeting place for lectures and discussion and Siebold himself gained recognition as an expert on Western learning. The Japanese-Dutch relationship is unique as it is the foundation upon which our two countries are based and through which our relations have grown and matured. These ties have proved to be mutually beneficial economically and have also enriched our societies in the fields of art and culture. Economic relations between the two countries are vibrant, covering the whole specter of goods and services. Several hundred Japanese companies call the Netherlands their home in Europe and this number is still increasing. The exchange in the high-tech sector is intensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What impact did the pandemic have on your work and what are you planning for the future?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The pandemic had a devastating impact on Japan Museum SieboldHuis.&nbsp; It came at a most inopportune moment during a highly successful exhibition and challenged us to be creative in keeping the SieboldHuis alive in the minds and hearts of our loyal \u2018friends\u2019 and the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/sms-bridges.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/NL21-Bridges-Japan-Museum-SieboldHuis-photo-3-1024x684.jpg\" class=\"td-modal-image\"><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large td-caption-align-right\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/sms-bridges.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/NL21-Bridges-Japan-Museum-SieboldHuis-photo-3-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22361\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sms-bridges.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/NL21-Bridges-Japan-Museum-SieboldHuis-photo-3-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sms-bridges.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/NL21-Bridges-Japan-Museum-SieboldHuis-photo-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sms-bridges.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/NL21-Bridges-Japan-Museum-SieboldHuis-photo-3-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sms-bridges.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/NL21-Bridges-Japan-Museum-SieboldHuis-photo-3-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sms-bridges.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/NL21-Bridges-Japan-Museum-SieboldHuis-photo-3-600x401.jpg 600w, https:\/\/sms-bridges.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/NL21-Bridges-Japan-Museum-SieboldHuis-photo-3-696x465.jpg 696w, https:\/\/sms-bridges.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/NL21-Bridges-Japan-Museum-SieboldHuis-photo-3-1068x713.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/sms-bridges.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/NL21-Bridges-Japan-Museum-SieboldHuis-photo-3-629x420.jpg 629w, https:\/\/sms-bridges.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/NL21-Bridges-Japan-Museum-SieboldHuis-photo-3.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>\u00a9 Japan Museum SieboldHuis<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Social media played a significant role to this end.

They are yours to discover in the stately Dutch residence that once was his home. It was here that he first displayed his treasures brought back from his beloved Japan. They included medicinal objects, art, maps, books, plants, and animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At present the works of &#8220;Ogata Gekk\u014d and his contemporaries&#8221; are on display. The works of this versatile artist will be exhibited until September 5, 2021. Private loans (including a large collection from Tasmania!), consisting of prints, books, albums, and exquisite paintings, have made this exhibition possible. In addition to more than one hundred works by Ogata Gekk\u014d (1859 &#8211; 1920), forty works of art by his contemporaries are on display. This exhibition offers a new perspective on printmaking during the Meiji period (1868-1912) and is a must see for lovers of Japanese art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the exhibition \u201cSplendor in detail. 20th century Japanese Lacquerware\u201d design works, luxury utensils, and art objects of the 20th century are on display from September 17 until December 5, 2021. The ancient art of Japanese lacquerware (urushi) is a lengthy and labor-intensive production process. Japanese lacquerware was exported to Europe as early as the 16th century and was extremely popular thanks to its superior quality and durability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Regarding your commitment to strengthening the Japan-Netherlands relationship, what message would you like to share with our readers?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>At Japan Museum SieboldHuis we look forward to exploring new opportunities and further developing cooperative ties with Japan.
