The Kyoto Municipal Museum of Art (京都市美術館, Kyōto-shi Bijutsukan) is one of the oldest art museums in Japan. It is located in Okazaki Park in Higashiyama-ku, Kyoto and opened in 1928 as a commemoration of Emperor Hirohito's coronation ceremony as it was initially called the Showa Imperial Coronation Art Museum of Kyoto.
