Artist

Kō Fuyō

Kō Fuyō is a Rococo painting artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Art Institute of Chicago.

Kō Fuyō painted delicate scenes from 18th-century Japan. Try Pine-Scented Wind, the Harmony of a Lute, a quiet ink-on-silk piece that shows a musician beneath pine trees. It belongs to the same quiet, natural mood as the period’s genre scenes.

See how the brushstrokes catch light on the lute’s strings. Tap through to the next scroll to compare it with another woodblock print in the same bundle.
