 Kano Eitoku Biography | Encyclopedia of World Biography
Kano Eitoku (1543-1590) was a Japanese painter of the Momoyama period.
Eitoku's first major work was the decoration of the Jukoin sanctuary at Daitokuji, a famous Kyoto Zen temple, a task he undertook with his father in 1566.
Yet the way in which Eitoku handled his brush with broad, vigorous strokes, stressing pattern rather than space, is very different from the earlier painting of either the Chinese or the Japanese, showing the artist's originality.

With his strong sense of realism, Eitoku was led to dispose palaces and monuments with the precision of a cartographer, while each quarter is animated by lively scenes evoking the different occupations and popular festivals.
For four years Eitoku supervised the decoration of this castle of a new type, dominated by a high turret of seven storeys, which symbolized the advent of a new era.
Eitoku courageously undertook these vast decorative projects with the help of a large team of studio collaborators: among others, his younger brothers Soshu (I55I-I60I) and Naganobu (I577-I654), his sons Mitsunobu (I565-I608) and Takanobu (I57I-I6I8), and his favorite pupil and adoptive son Sanraku (I559-I635).

Over the course of his career, Eitoku worked in a number of different styles and mediums, although he is best known for his fusuma (sliding panel) and folding screen paintings.
Eitoku is most famous for the personalize style that became a signature for his work, which is best depicted in the set of 16 fusuma panels at the Jukoin of Daitokuji entitled, Landscape with Flowers and Birds.
Eitoku utilizes a cursive mode of painting (sotai) with coarse and rapid brushstrokes which create variations in the tone of the ink making stark contrasts in darks and lights over the entire piece.

A member of the famous Kano School of Art started by his grandfather Kano Motonobu, Eitoku was a skilled artisan who by his early twenties was being commissioned by the daimyos of Japan.
The style used in the panels was quite different from past versions of fusuma paintings because Eitoku decided to dispense with the common vertical motifs such as thick tree trunks in the corners of the room that emphasized the columns.
In these open areas; Eitoku dispersed smaller motifs of animals and nature with minimal amounts of gold dust in open areas to aid in the aesthetic which matched the rest of the room.

The Ohiroma of Nijo Castle (17th century) in Kyoto is one of the classic examples of the shoin, with its tokonoma (alcove), shoin window (overlooking a carefully landscaped garden), and clearly differentiated areas for the Tokugawa lords and their vassals.
The most important school of painting in the Momoyama period was that of the Kano, and the greatest innovation of the period was the formula, developed by Kano Eitoku for the creation of monumental landscapes on the sliding doors enclosing a room.
Eitoku's screen, Chinese Lions, also in Kyoto, reveals the bold, brightly colored style of painting preferred by the samurai.

Responding to the demands of both patronage and architecture, Eitoku created a new, magnificent and brilliant style of painting on gold-foil backgrounds *kinpeki shouhekiga 金壁障屏画.
Two major Kanou artists of the late 16c were Mitsunobu 光信 (1561-1608), Eitoku's son, and Sanraku 山楽 (1559-1635), Eitoku's disciple.
These painters did not continue their master's monumental style but worked in their own manner, characterized by more fragmented compositions, quieter moods, delicacy, elegance and decorativeness.

According to Kano Eino (1631–97), the author of the Honcho gashi (‘History of Japanese painting’; 1693), Eitoku developed this taiga style because the increasing demand for his work meant that he had no time for meticulous brushwork, and he began to use a coarse brush of straw for his ink painting.
Eitoku is best known for his screen-and-wall paintings in vivid colours and gold leaf (kinpeki shohekiga), but he also worked in a saiga (‘small’ or ‘elaborate painting’) style.
The former were popular with the rival warlords of the Azuchi–Momoyama period (1568–1600), who employed the artist to decorate their residences in a manner grand enough to satisfy their aggressive ambitions.
