About the Artist

Itō Jakuchū (1716–1800) was an Edo period Japanese painter known for his captivating depictions of birds, especially chickens. His work, while rooted in traditional Japanese aesthetics, demonstrated modern experimentation with perspective and stylistic techniques. Jakuchū's vivid and realistic approach placed him alongside Maruyama Ōkyo, and he gained recognition as one of Kyoto’s leading artists. Deeply influenced by Zen Buddhism, Jakuchū balanced spiritual elements with a growing awareness of Kyoto's increasingly commercial society. His art, celebrated for its detail and eccentricities, played a key role in Japan's cultural tapestry, and his legacy continues to shape Japanese art history today.
