賢治寓話「黒ぶだう」は,仔牛が赤狐に誘われ,ベチュラ公爵別荘にわき玄関から入り,二階で黒ブドウを食べる。狐はブドウの汁を吸って他は吐き出し,仔牛は種まで噛む。公爵たちが帰ってきて,狐は逃げ,残された仔牛はリボンを貰う。この話の公爵別荘のモデルは花巻市街に現存する菊池捍(きくちまもる)邸であることが明らかとなった。菊池邸は1926年に建てられ,外見は洋館,中が畳敷きの和室で,花巻出身で北海道清水町の明治製糖工場長であった捍氏が建主である。北海道の洋館建築の様式をとり入れつつも,武家住宅の伝統を受け継ぎ,洋館には無いはずの本玄関と脇玄関を付けた。賢治が仔牛たちは「わき玄関」から入ったと書いているのが菊池邸をモデルとした証拠である。この建物は他にも「黒ぶだう」の別荘と合う点が多い。菊池捍邸が賢治作品の創作の秘密を解く鍵として極めて重要なことがわかったが,建物自体も大正期の洋風建築として価値の高いものであり,保存保全が望ましい。In Kenji Miyazawa's fairy tale "Black Grapes, " a calf, entitled by a red fox from a pasture, entered the villa of Duke Betula through the side entrance and ate black grapes on the second floor. The fox sucked the juice of the grapes and spit out the residue, while the calf chewed the grapes and the seeds as well. When the duke and his entourage returned home, the fox ran away. The calf was left there, but was given a ribbon by the duke. It was revealed that the model of the duke's villa is the residence of Mamoru Kikuchi, that still exists in the city of Hanamaki today. Built in 1926 by Mamoru Kikuchi, from Hanamaki and manager of Meiji Seito's sugar-making factory in Shimizu town, Hokkaido, the Kikuchi Residence has a Western appearance and tatami-matted rooms inside. Although the building was designed after the style of Hokkaido Western architecture, it followed the tradition of the samurai house and has both a main entrance and a side entrance, which don't exist in an ordinary Western-style house. The evidence that this is the model is that, as Kenji wrote, the calf and the red fox entered the villa through the "side entrance." There are many elements this building has that agree with the descriptions of the Black Grapes villa. Although the Kikuchi Residence is extremely important as a key to unravel the secrets of Kenji's creation in his works, the building itself is of high value as an example of Taisho Era western architecture, which is why its total preservation is desired.
