''Akita ranga'', also known as the Akita school, was a short-lived school of painting within the larger Japanese genre of ''[[ranga]]'', or Dutch-style painting which lasted roughly from 1773-1780. Based in [[Akita han]], it was headed by the domain's lord [[Satake Shozan]] and his retainer [[Odano Naotake]]. Though many ''ranga'' artists, most prominently [[Shiba Kokan|Shiba Kôkan]], produced works of European themes, the Akita painters for the most part painted traditional Japanese themes and compositions using Western-style techniques and an approximation of oil paints.
