Nanpin School
The Nanpin school ( Japanese 南 蘋 派 , Nanpin-ha ) of painting goes back to Shen Quan (Japanese Nanpin), who taught in Nagasaki from 1731 to 1733 . Nanpin's style is characterized by a realistic execution of subjects such as "flowers and birds". This style was very popular for a while, but was then pushed back by Maruyama Ōkyo and his school. His student Kumashiro Yūhi ( 熊 代 熊 斐 ; 1712-1772) then became the teacher of a number of other students. While Sō Shiseki ( 宋 紫石 ; 1715–1786) spread the style in Edo , Kakutei ( 鶴亭 ; 1722–1785) in particular ensured the spread in the Osaka - Kyoto area. Other students or painters of this style were
- Shokatsu Kan ( 諸葛 監 ; 1717–1790)
- Takebe Ryōtai ( 建 部 綾 岱 ; 1719–1774)
- Katori Nahiko ( 楫 取 魚 彦 ; 1723–1782)
- Mori Ransai ( 森 蘭 斎 ; 1731–1801)
- Kurokawa Kigyoku ( 黒 川 亀 玉 ; 1732–1756)
- Mamura Rokō ( 真 村 廬江 ; 1755–1795)
