Two Kamigata painters, Watanabe Nangaku (1767-1813) and Nakamura Hōchū (d. 1819) are representative artists who transmitted the painting style of the Kyoto-Osaka region to Edo. Nangaku was a Kyoto painter who studied under Maruyama Ōkyo (1733-1795) and his disciple Genki (1747- 1797). He stayed in Edo from 1802 to 1804. Hōchū, who painted in the Rinpa style of Ogata Kōrin (1658-1716), on the other hand, was active in Osaka as a painter using his fingertips (or fingernails) instead of a brush. He left his mark on Edo during a visit from the end of 1799 to 1802, prior to Nangaku's journey. Their personal contacts and connections in Edo seem to have overlapped to some extent: for example, through haiku poets Suzuki Michihiko (1757-1819), a doctor from Sendai, and Natsume Seibi (1749-1816), a rice broker in Asakusa. Both Nangaku and Hōchū's ties with the haikai world in Edo were even stronger than those in painting. This presentation will focus particularly on haikai aspects of their activities while in Edo.

江戸時代後期、上方の画風を江戸に伝えた画家として、円山派の渡辺南岳(1767～1813)と尾形光琳風の絵をよくした中村芳中(?～1819)を挙げることができる。南岳は円山応挙とその高弟・源琦に学んだ京都の画家で、享和 2 年(1802)から文化元年(1804)の足掛け 3 年にわたって江戸に滞在した。一方の芳中は、筆の代わりに指を用いて描く指頭画家として大坂で活躍し、南岳に先んずる寛政 11 年(1799)末から享和 2 年(1802)まで江戸に足跡を残している。江戸における彼らの交流には重なる人脈が認められ、仙台出身で医を業とした鈴木道彦(1757～1819)や浅草で札差業を営んだ夏目成美(1749～1816)など俳諧の結びつきは、むしろ絵画以上に大きかった。今回のシンポジウムでは特に俳諧の側面からスポットをあて、二人の活躍について論じることとする。
