*''Japanese'': 鳥山石燕 ''(Toriyama Sekien)''

Toriyama Sekien was an ''[[ukiyo-e]]'' artist best known, perhaps, for works depicting monsters, ghosts, and demons, such as his [[1776]] "Illustrated Night Parade of a Hundred Demons" (''Gazu hyakki yagyô'').

Sekien's [[1774]] ''Sekien gafu'' ("Collection of Images by Sekien") is regarded as the first work to use ''[[bokashi]]'' gradation printing techniques.

Sekien's students included [[Koikawa Harumachi]], [[Utamaro|Kitagawa Utamaro]], [[Utagawa Toyoharu]], and [[Eishosai Choki|Eishôsai Chôki]]<!--栄松斎 長喜-->.
