Ito Shinsui Date of Birth: February 4, 1898 
Place of Birth: Fukagawa-ku, Tokyo (present-day Koto-ku, Tokyo) 
Master: Kaburaki Kiyokata 


Although Ito Shinsui painted many pictures of beautiful women, he also worked on flower-and-bird paintings and some of his works feature “roses” as their subject.


Ito is known as one of the “Three Masters of Beauty Paintings” along with Kaburaki Kiyokata and Uemura Shoen, and is one of the most famous modern Japanese painters.


While inheriting traditional Ukiyoe techniques, Ito Shinsui has earned high acclaim for his delicate brushwork and use of color to depict the beauty of modern women.


Although he also worked on subjects other than portraits of beautiful women, his paintings of beautiful women are particularly popular and loved by many people.


In watercolor painting as well, his outstanding descriptive ability and sense of color are considered to express his unique and beautiful view of the world.
