Chrysanthemums by a Stream, late 1700s-early 1800s. The two lines of script prominently written on the outermost panel of each of these screens ( byobu ) identify the author as Korin, one of the most renowned of all Edo period painters. Together with Tawaraya Sotatsu (died c. 1640) and Ogata Kenzan (1663-1743), Korin's younger brother, he represents one of the stalwarts of the Rinpa school of later Japanese painting.
