He is famous for his paintings of tigers. Ganku was born in Kanazawa as Kishi Saeki, studied painting styles including those of Chinese painter Shen Nanpin and the Maruyama-Shijo school, and arrived in Kyoto around 1780. By the late 18th century, Ganku’s paintings were appreciated by patrons that included the imperial family, leading to a position under Prince Arisugawa. His students included his son, Gantai (1782–1865), son-in-law Ganryou (1797–1852), adopted son Renzan (1804–59), Yokoyama Kazan (1784–1837), Shirai Kayou (fl. ca 1840–60), and Kawamura Bumpou (1779–1821).
