Description

A wolf howls beneath the tall pines in a misty landscape. The painter was born in the bustling city of Osaka in the Kansai region. He studied with Mori Jihō (1818–1891) and admired the Maruyama school of painters. He was especially gifted at depicting deer, monkeys, tigers, weasels, and other animals.
