Identity and overview
Believed to be one of the most popular painters of his time, his work, very much in the Kaigetsudō style, consists largely of bijin-ga (pictures of beautiful ladies) and features bright colors and exquisite kimono fashions. He is believed to have worked closely with Baiōken Eishun, another Kaigetsudō artist whose style shows significant similarities.
