Katsukawa Shunchō
Katsukawa Shunchō (勝川 春潮) was a Japanese designer of ukiyo-e style Japanese woodblock prints, who was active from about 1783 to about 1795.
Although a student of Katsukawa Shunshō, Shunchō's output, which consists mostly of prints of beautiful women, more closely resembles the work of Torii Kiyonaga.[1]
Shunchō also designed many shunga prints, which also resemble those of Torii Kiyonaga.[1]
His work is held in the permanent collections of many museums worldwide, including the British Museum,[2] the Portland Art Museum,[3] the University of Michigan Museum of Art,[4] the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art,[5] the Reading Public Museum,[6] the Gregory Allicar Museum of Art,[7] the Harvard Art Museums,[8] the Minneapolis Institute of Art,[9] the Mead Art Museum at Amherst College,[10] the Hyde Collection,[11] the MOA Museum of Art,[12] the Indianapolis Museum of Art,[13] the Brooklyn Museum,[14] the Suntory Museum of Art,[15] and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.[16]
