Kōno Shūson (1890-1987) was one of those who devoted themselves to the promotion of Nanga (a school of Japanese painting inspired by Chinese painting that flourished after the mid-Edo period) after leaving for Kyōto at the age of 18 to thoroughly study Nanga. At the beginning of his studies of Nanga, he could only study it in Japan with copies. He, however, had absorbed the techniques of expression, in addition to many other subjects such as landscapes, kachō (flower and bird), and human figures, which were reflected in his works since he visited China for the first time in 1923, followed by many additional trips. He also served as the president of the Japan Nanga Institute, where he taught the next generation of artists.
