Nanga artist of the late Edo period. Studied under 加藤文麗 Kato Bunrei (1706-1782) and 渡辺玄対 Watanabe Gentai (1749-1822).
He Studied 狩野派 the Kano and 南蘋派 Nanpin schools and then moved on to Nanga, but his style was extremely eclectic, learning from 大和絵 Yamato-e and Western painting as well and he created his own unique style of painting.
He had an insatiable curiosity to take in anything and everything.
