Kanō Hideyori

[1] His date of birth and death are unknown, however he was active in the mid-16th century, the beginning of the Momoyama period (1573–1603).

[2] Not much is known about him, but he was probably either the son or grandson of Kano Motonobu.

[1] His style has been described as "adopting the superficial qualities of yamato-e, being in spirit thoroughly Chinese".

[3] This being said, he painted Maple Viewers either a pioneering work that predated ukiyo-e, or one of the earliest examples of the movement.
