Sugitani Sesshô was a prominent painter of the [[Bakumatsu]] and [[Meiji period]]s, who served as court painter (''goyô eshi'') to the [[Hosokawa clan]] lords of [[Kumamoto han]].
Born in [[1827]] the son of Kumamoto han court painter [[Sugitani Yukinao]], he was raised with training in painting in the styles of [[Unkoku Togan]], [[Sesshu|Sesshû]], and the Northern painting style of China.
He is known to have accompanied Kumamoto ''[[karo|hittô karô]]'' (Chief Elder) [[Matsui Teruyuki]] to [[Edo]] in [[1856]], and thus is known to have had experience not only with Kumamoto, but also with the city of Edo and many locales elsewhere within the realm.
Sesshô traveled to [[Tokyo]] again in [[1887]], where he was commissioned to produce a number of sliding screen or wall paintings for the Hosokawa, and for the [[Imperial Court]].
