Soga Shōhaku

Soga Shōhaku (曾我蕭白) (1730–1781) was a Japanese painter of the Edo period. Shōhaku distinguished himself from his contemporaries by preferring the brush style of the Muromachi period, an aesthetic that was already passé 150 years before his birth.
Shōhaku's birth name was Miura Sakonjirō. His family was wealthy, but all of his immediate family members died before he reached age 18.
