"Crane" (1980) by Shoko Uemura SHOHAKU ARTMUSEUM

Shoko was the son of the famous nihonga painter Shoen Uemura (1875-1949), and he followed in her artistic footsteps to create kacho-ga (birds-and-flower paintings). In 1948, he helped established Souzou Bijutsu (present-day Souga-kai), a group of like-minded artists dedicated to further promoting nihonga. For more than 80 years, he was respected as one of the most well-known nihonga painters in Japan; till Nov. 27.
