The Kōrin Picture Book, 1800s. Nakamura Hōchū (Japanese, d. 1819). Color woodblock printed book; book: 26 x 37.5 cm (10 1/4 x 14 3/4 in.). Nakamura Hch prized the design acumen of earlier painter Ogata Krin (1658-1716) and honored him with this two-volume set of woodblock printed images. While Hch sampled the original compositions from Krin’s works, the prints in these books are heavily inflected with his own loose, whimsical drawing style.
