IMAGE: Mongaku (drawing by Utagawa Kuniyoshi, 1798-1861)
Mongaku (文覚, 1139 – 1203), also known as Endō Moritō, was a Japanese Buddhist monk from the late Heian Period to early Kamakura Period.
This painting is one of the most famous works of the Japanese painter Utagawa Kuniyoshi.
Utagawa Kuniyoshi (January 1, 1798 – April 14, 1861) was one of the last great masters of the Japanese ukiyo-e style of woodblock prints and painting. He was a member of the Utagawa school.
The range of Kuniyoshi's subjects included many genres: landscapes, beautiful women, Kabuki actors, cats, and mythical animals. He is known for depictions of the battles of legendary samurai heroes. His artwork incorporated aspects of Western representation in landscape painting and caricature.
