A unique exhibition is underway at a human rights educational facility in Tokyo focusing on how to guarantee the "right to read" of people with visual impairments.

The around 100 items on display at the Tokyo Metropolitan Human Rights Promotion Center include embossed art and picture books as well as braille maps of Tokyo Disneyland.

Embossed art books enable visually impaired people to trace embossed pictures such as "Mona Lisa" by Leonardo da Vinci and "Girl with a Pearl Earring" by Johannes Vermeer with their fingers so they can visualize what the paintings look like.
