Avant-garde painter Edo Kuniyoshi Utagawa

Kuniyoshi was recognized as a talented disciple by a 12-year-old father, a popular Ukiyo-e artist who was a friend of his father, but he was not good at it because he had bad behavior and was not found in his 20s. . At that time, the brothers and children's costumes (Kuni Sadan) received actors' pictures and beauty pictures, had a good swing, and were highly motivated by geisha sources. Kuniyoshi, who saw it, was inspired and has since been engaged in the study of art.

First of all, Kuniyoshi drew an illustration of a reading book by Takizawa Makin (Bakin), which Hokusai drew and drew a great reputation. We will compete against the national courts by expanding the vibrancy and the tale of a spectacular quaint piece into a three-sheet or single-sheet, multi-shot screen. Then, the one-piece "Takushi Mizunagi Jakushi Hyakunin" who was put on the market at the time of the Mizukoden boom at the time was hit and hit the stardom at 30 years old. . In addition, Kuniyoshi inspired by the novel landscape paintings of "Togashi Thirty-six Views" announced by Hokusai, challenged the "Toto" series, and drawn fantastic clouds, such as drawing dirty clouds, and presented fantastic Western landscape paintings. In addition, it is recognized as "Kunarishi of warrior picture" in shocking close-up of a monster fish or a monster and a caricature series in the widescreen of three consecutive images.

"There are many disciples, no matter how big they are in the Ukiyo-e world, they have a wild style, and they take on their wages regardless of some of their wages if they like the order from the boarders due to their temperament. If you don't feel good, you will refuse even the favorable conditions. A way out of greed is something that the secret of the Shogunate records the character of Kuniyoshi. Even though the works that flew in a writhing manner, such as garnishing the ghosts of the different forms in the caricatures, gained popularity among the people, it was constantly marked as a watchful person of the authorities, and while writing the end-of-life book, he undertook the control of the Shogunate.
