In his youth, he moved to Kyoto, then a thriving cultural center, to pursue his artistic education. There, he was deeply influenced by Chinese painting traditions, particularly works from the Yuan (1271–1368) and Ming (1368–1644) dynasties, which were widely admired in Japan during the Edo period. He was especially noted for his remarkable ability to emulate the styles of celebrated Edo-period painters such as Yosa Buson (1716–1784), Ike no Taiga (1723–1776), and Ito Jakuchu (1716–1800). His refined brushwork and sensitive compositions positioned him as a respected figure within the Kyoto painting circles of his time. Among his most notable pupils was Cho Gessho (1772–1832), who would go on to become an influential painter in his own right.Tiger and dragon are Chinese cosmological symbols of the balancing forces in the world, yin (the feminine aspect) and yang (the masculine aspect). The tiger's roar is also said to generate wind, and the dragon clouds. The screens may have originally been meant to express the fluctuating nature of the world as envisioned in the practice of military divination, or forecasting, based on the Yijing (Book of Changes).Auction comparison:Compare a closely related Kano school six-panel ‘tiger and dragon’ byobu screen, 18th century, at Zacke, Fine Japanese Art, 14 June 2024, Vienna, lot 303 (sold for EUR 23,400).
