Document source description

Traditionally, young painters in Japan began their studies with an established master painter. The master's compositions invariably became models that the apprentice copied to learn various ink and brush techniques. Shukuya was a pupil of the famous Kyoto artist Ike Taiga, whose style is reflected in these sketches of rocks, trees, and mountains.
