*''Japanese'': [[狩野]]益信 ''(Kanou Masunobu)''
Kanô Masunobu was the founder of the Surugadai branch of the [[Kanô school]] of painting; he and the other members of the Surugadai branch were designated ''omote eshi'', or "painters of the outer quarters," one of a number of terms used to refer to court painters in the service of the [[Tokugawa shogunate]].
He was involved in a number of famous projects, including the repainting in [[1642]] of the Seiryôden of the [[Kyoto Imperial Palace]], a project headed by Masunobu's mentor and father-in-law, [[Kano Tanyu|Kanô Tan'yû]].
