Iwase Hirotaka was originally a Kyoto based Ukiyo-e artist known as Hishikawa Kiyoharu. At the age of 26 or 27, he moved to Wakayama, changed his name, and began studying Yamato-e with Tanaka Totsugen and Ukita Ikkei. Totsugen and Ikkei were leaders of the Fukko Yamato-e school and were connected to a political movement that sought to revive the power of the Emperor. A diverse and accomplished artist, Hirotaka eventually turned to literati painting, which he learned from Tetsuo Somon.
