*''Born: [[1865]]''
*''Died: 1950''
Matsukata Kôjirô was a one-time head of the Kawasaki Shipbuilding Corporation, and prominent art collector. His collection of European paintings and sculpture forms the core of the collection of the [[National Museum of Western Art]] in [[Tokyo]]. A [[Northern Song Dynasty]] (possibly [[Xi Xia]]) sculpture of [[Kannon|Guanyin]] today prominently displayed at the [[Honolulu Museum of Art]] also derives from Matsukata's collection.
