『訪隠図』(1930)【最高画質版】
【Hashimoto Kansetsu】
(橋本関雪, 1883–1945) was a painter of nihonga (Japanese-style paintings) who was active in the Kyoto art world during the Showa and Taisho eras.
Born in Kobe, he was the son of the painter Hashimoto Kaikan, from whom he gained a love of Chinese culture. He studied at Chikujokai, a private school established by the famous nihonga painter Takeuchi Seihō (1864–1942), but eventually withdrew due to differences of opinion. He visited Europe in 1921 and after that spent part of almost every year in China. Many of his paintings were inspired by Chinese scenery or Chinese classical literature. His former residence in Kyoto is now a museum of his work called the Hakusasonso (白沙村荘), or Hashimoto Kansetsu Memorial House.

兵庫県に生まれる。幼少より漢学を学ぶかたわら、片岡公曠について四条派の手ほどきを受ける。その後、竹内栖鳳主宰の竹杖会に入門。生涯を通じてたびたび中国を訪れ、その風物や文学に取材した作品を描き、官展で評価を得た。昭和に入ると動物画も手掛け始め、四条派、狩野派、南画などのあらゆる画風を咀嚼し、精神性を重んじた作品を遺した。
