The exhibit includes remarkable weapons such as long and short swords, daggers, and examples of early Japanese rifles.
The exhibition also showcases a pair of 17th-century folding screens by a Kano school artist depicting battle scenes from the famous Tale of the Heike, one of the greatest warrior epics in Japanese literature that marks the dawn of samurai honor, valor and fortitude.
