Tawaraya Sotatsu
The year of birth and death is unknown. A painter who was active from Momoyama to the early Edo period, he is the owner of the painting studio "Tawaraya" in Kyoto. While rooted in the tradition of Yamato-e, it features innovative modeling that is not bound by the established school style, bold composition, and beautiful colors. The flow of this decorative painting, which was founded by Sotatsu, was developed as "Rinpa" by Korin Ogata. Representative works are "National Treasure Wind God Thunder God Map", "National Treasure Lotus Poultry Poultry Map", and "National Treasure Sekiya Miotsukushi".
