Toba Sôjô was a monk of the [[Heian period]], to whom the creation of the famous ''[[Choju-giga|Chôjû-giga]]'' ("Frolicking Animals") scroll painting has traditionally been attributed.

Collections of illustrations published in the [[Edo period]] and said to resemble the artistic style of the ''Chôjû-giga'' were called ''[[Toba-e]]'', after him.
