From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gatōken Shunshi (画登軒 春芝) was a designer of
ukiyo-e
Japanese woodblock prints in
Osaka who was active from about 1820 to 1828. He was a student of
Shunkōsai Hokushū and the teacher of
Gakōken Shunshi. Gatōken Shunshi is best known for his portraits of the
kabuki actors, especially the star
Onoe Tamizō II.

Hokumyō.
