Description: The artists of the Shijo School drew upon all the known Japanese painting styles to synthesize a new style which enriched and enlarged the native tradition, Created for a sophisticated audience primarily of rich merchants in and around Kyoto and Osaka during the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the arts of the Shijo Schhol reflect the concerns of contemporary bourgeois society and a taste for decorative style. Painted folded screens, sliding door panels, and vertical hanging scrolls originally meant to decorate the interior spaces of living quarters, as well as paintings designed for smaller formats, show a particular preference for evocative subjects based on poetic themes and an interest in nature.
