About the artist
Name
Okamoto, Shuki
Biography
Okamoto Shuki was a leading bird-and-flower painter in the final years of the shogunate. He drew primarily on the meticulous Shen Nanpin style, but also studied Chinese Ming-dynasty painting, and the Kano and Maruyama-Shijo schools.
In Japanese culture a person's family name comes first, so this artist's name is written Okamoto Shuki.
