The exact pronunciation of his name is unclear, and it is sometimes read as "Yasutomo."Background: A pupil of Kaigetsudō Ando, Chōyōdō Anchi was known by his artistic name, which included the character “An,” suggesting he might not have been just a disciple but possibly Ando’s brother, son, or the second-generation successor who took over the Kaigetsudō workshop. He was active around the Shōtoku era and produced eight large-format sumi-e prints and painted beautiful women in his hand-painted works. These sumi-e prints seem to have been more affordable versions of his paintings. His works are characterized by their dignified and tightly composed portraits of beautiful women, indicating his remarkable talent within the Kaigetsudō school. Anchi consistently used the prefix "Nihon Giga" (Japanese caricature) in the signatures of his hand-painted beauty portraits.Size: 57 cm (22.44 inches) × 37.5 cm (14.76 inches) Condition:The print shows some signs of wear, with tears, stains, and discoloration, yet these do not detract from its classical value.
