ABOUT THE ARTIST
Born in Kyoto, Imao Keinen (1845-1924) studied painting and calligraphy with Umegata Tokyo and Suzuki Hyakunen. He taught at the Kyoto Prefecture School of Painting and exhibited in shows in Japan and Paris. One of the most well-known Japanese painters of his time, Keinen was honored by his country with the title of 'Artist of the Japanese Empire' and with membership in the Imperial Fine Arts Academy in 1919.
Imao Keinen’s most famous work, 'Keinen Kacho Gafu', is an extensive series of 160 woodblock prints of birds and flowers, published in 1891 in four volumes of 40 prints, one for each of the four seasons. The subjects range from large birds of prey to beautiful songbirds, each realistically depicted with the flowering plants and trees of their native habitat—the lyrically designed works rendered in a natural, soft color palette. These exceptionally fine nature prints, produced in the traditional Japanese vertical Oban format, were published by Nishimura Soemon, with the blocks carved by Tanaka Hirokichi and printed by Miki Jinzaburo.
