Gakuō may have hailed from Ise in present-day Wakayama prefecture, an area south of Kyoto in the Kansai region. Although not much is known about his life, inscriptions on some of his paintings indicate strong ties with eminent monks in Kyoto’s major Zen temples. --- RELATED WORKS --- CITATIONS --- IMAGES web: https://openaccess-cdn.clevelandart.org/2015.512/2015.512_web.jpg print: https://openaccess-cdn.clevelandart.org/2015.512/2015.512_print.jpg full: https://openaccess-cdn.clevelandart.org/2015.512/2015.512_full.tif
