ARTIST
Hashimoto Gaho
(1835-1908)
Born in Edo, Hashimoto Gaho learned the painting techniques of the Kano school from his father Hashimoto Osakuni , and at just thirteen years of age became a student of Kano Tadanobu. He was known to be the most gifted student of his studio, and became an independent painter at twenty-six. Later he was introduced to Ernest Fenollosa, an American art historian who specialized in Japanese art, and Okakura Tenshin, which led to him taking up a position at the Tokyo School of Fine Arts which was founded in 1888. As an instructor there he educated many talented artists such as Yokoyama Taikan. In 1898, he stepped down from this post together with Tenshin as a result of tensions in the school, and became an executive member of the Japan Art Academy. He is referred to as the father of modern Japanese-style painting.
