Biography:
Kono Bairei (1844-1895)
Bairei was a Japanese
painter, book illustrator and art teacher, born (as Yasuda Bairei) and
lived in Kyoto. ] He was a member of the Ukiyo-e school and a master of
kacho-e painting. In 1852, he went to study with the Maruyama-school
painter, Nakajima Raisho (1796–1871). After Raisho’s death, Bairei
studied with the Shijo-school master Shiokawa Bunrin (1808–77).[4] His
work included flower prints, bird prints, and landscapes, with a touch
of western realism.
