The Secret of Immense Motherhood and the Power of Art to Heal You

The Special Sense of Comfort Brought by Perfect Beauty

Hello.

I am Mimi Takamizawa.

I am truly delighted that you are here today.

Do you realize that you are forgetting your own time in your busy daily life?

I came here for you, who spend your days without even a moment to pause.

The groundbreaking story I tell will release your heart in an instant.

The astonishing truth of art unfolds right before your eyes.

Rest assured.

Just knowing this will evolve your everyday life into something refined.

“In a busy everyday life, does appreciating art really have anything to do with me?”

It is only natural that you might feel such anxiety.

However, genuine art is a once-in-a-lifetime treasure created just for you.

That is because spending time with first-rate works gently envelops your fatigued self.

I would like to introduce you to the finest painting cherished by the Louvre Museum.

It is “The Virgin and Child with Saint Anne,” painted around 1508 by Leonardo da Vinci.

It is an oil painting on a poplar panel measuring 168 cm by 112 cm.

Depicted on the canvas are the Virgin Mary, the infant Christ, and Mary’s mother, Saint Anne.

The young Christ firmly grasps a sacrificial lamb.

Mary reaches out her hands to gently restrain her child.

Knowing the history of this painting of proven quality brings an astonishing degree of space and peace into your everyday life.

The Sure Realization of Connecting with the Earth and Its Hidden Powers of Nature

Hiding within the composition of this painting is a novel secret unlike anything before.

Mary is actually sitting on the lap of her mother, Anne.

An adult woman sitting on the lap of another woman is an arrangement with no other example anywhere.

Why did Leonardo paint such a strange pose?

Don’t you find it unnatural and puzzling?

In fact, by depicting Anne’s body larger, he clearly demonstrates the parent-child relationship between the two.

Earth-colored in her clothing, the massive Anne is a symbol connecting the earth with life.

Her feet touch the edge of the water, and her head reaches near the top of the sky and the mountains.

Upon Anne’s face floats the gentle smile of one who knows everything.

“Is an unfinished painting not lower in value?”

Some people might think that way.

However, that is a huge mistake.

Leonardo painted a preliminary study in 1498 and was commissioned by a church in Florence to produce it.

He continued adding retouches to this work and never let go of it until the very end of his life.

The secret techniques breathed into it by the craftsman are accumulated all over the canvas.

Precisely because it is unfinished, the painter’s way of life and passion are carved directly into it.

A luxurious time that can never be obtained again is condensed into this single painting.

You have the right to claim the best possible future as the protagonist of your own story.

The quiet time spent gazing at this special work strongly supports your wounded heart.

Reset your anxieties and troubles, and reclaim your own unique radiance.

Are you aware that you, who are always working hard, are in need of rest?

Mimi Takamizawa’s art serves your life with utmost sincerity.

This is because you have the right to attain a “valuable” life as the “protagonist” of your own story.
