Tosa Mitsusuke Paintings

Tosa Mitsusuke was the 18th head of the Tosa school. He is the son of Tosa Mitsunari (1646–1710). Successive heads of the Tosa school served the emperors as Edokoro-Azukari (official painters for the Imperial Palace). This title was passed to Mitsusuke, from his father, in 1696. In 1709, it is recorded that Mitsusuke, with Kano Tsunenobu, painted sliding doors in the Imperial Palace and the Sento Palace.
