旧中西家住宅の案内冊子によれば(以下、転載)~中西家は江戸時代には大庄屋を務めていました。約1,000坪の屋敷地に、文政9(1826)年建造の主家、長屋門、内蔵(米蔵)、キザラ(木小屋)などの建物が建ち、江戸後期の大庄屋の屋敷構えを、ほぼ当時のまま伝えています。また主屋前面に造られた庭園は、作庭の位置や造園の技法に特色をもっていて、稀有なものといわれており、平成25年8月11日に、国の登録記念物(名勝)に登録されました。旧中西家住宅のほぼ全ての建物は、吹田市指定有形文化財に指定され、同時に国の登録有形文化財に登録されていて、吹田市の長い歴史と深い文化を伝える貴重な建物です。~(転載終り)とあります。

Former Nakanishi Family Residence had been donated to
Suita-City as the "Kishibe Guesthouse for Writers and Artists" by
Nakanishi Family at January 1st 2007. They say by an official booklet
"Nakanishi family was a village official in the Edo era (1603-1868) of
Japan. The residence had built in 1826 and that residence has a main house, a

scenic beauty in August 11 2013. All building of this residence is as a

Since I first have been photographing the Former Nakanishi Family Residence in the spring of 2020, I have continued to photograph it every spring and autumn during its Special Public Opening period. I took the photos in the summer of 2022. And then for the first time, I was able to photo the landscape of winter snowfall.
