In 1957, Munakata built his own Atelier (Zakke-Sanboh) which has a great view of Mt. Fuji and Sagami Bay. He used it as Atelier and his home, from the time at the height of his fame in popularity till his death. While he was producing a huge print to display for a public institution, all the boards were spread in the space of the garden. While he was at the age of 60, he fell a victim to a disease. However, he continued with his work, drawing small pieces of daily themes in reflecting upon himself. In Spring Exhibition, his atelier life is to be retrospected through his works and photos taken in peaceful daily moments.
