Tsuchida Bakusen (土田麦僊, February 9, 1887 – June 10, 1936) was the art-name of a Japanese painter in the Nihonga style, active during the Taishō and early Shōwa eras.
As an adolescent, Bakusen's father put him on the career path of a Buddhist priest, but he fled the temple where he was apprenticed in order to study art instead.
His favorite subjects were women (bijinga), especially portraits of maiko, but he also painted flowers and still life themes.
In 1921, the Kokuga Society went on hiatus when Bakusen traveled to Europe with Ono Chikkyō to tour Western art museums.
However, his painting Maiko in Garden (舞妓林泉, Bugi rinsen) from 1923, owned by the same museum, is considered his masterpiece.
