This was a wonderful presentation, I love the discussions about how the academic persueits of the aristocracy and aristocratic theology charged art with a meaning and even direct techniques. What's better is that these designs looked at by someone today may seem trivial or simple or unskilled even in some cases, but as in Byzantine and early christian art, the priorities and end goals are completely different than just simple realism or frank realistic representation, it's like having to put on 3d glasses at the movies to see the true depth and stunning clarity of a movie that without looking through those particular lenses would seem blurry and distorted. Very skilled presenter awesome work.
There is a signature at left upper side, it could be read ''玉堂'' (Gyokudou). I suppose it is Gyokudou Urakami's work of art. He is not a Rinpa artist, though.
So refreshing for me to hear someone talking so concisely, economically and meaningfully.

That was an excellent presentation. Can anyone tell me who painted the little square landscape that appears at 3:00 ?
