| Artists, who produced early Japanese paintings
on Buddhist and official court themes, were considered artisans.
From the medieval period on, individual artists whose names
can be identified began to appear. However, with the exception
of a few, most painters rarely expressed themselves individually.

to early modern periods will be examined, along with their works. |
