artdescription
This art here was drawn by Morikazu Kumagai when he was 88 years old.

Morikazu Kumagai (1880-1977) was born in Gifu.

In 1900, he entered Tokyo University of the Arts, and was taught by Seiki Kuroda.
It was in his 60s when he established so-called "Kumagai Style" with unique methods.
His art style is based on a procedure with transcription that was being tried to develop since about 1935.
