Japan: 'Beauty'. Hanging scroll painting by Soga Shohaku (1730-1781), c. 1760-1769. Soga Shohaku (1730 - 30 January 1781), born Miura Sakonjiro, was a Japanese painter from either Ise or Kyoto. Soga was a student of Takada Keiho, an artist of the Kano School, which was influenced by Chinese culture and techniques, though he preferred the brush style of the Muromachi period, which had already gone out of fashion 150 years before his birth.
