<br />
Kuroda Seiki was a prominent Western-style ("''[[yoga|yôga]]''") oil painter, art teacher, and proponent of Western-style painting.<br />
<br />
Born into a prominent samurai family in [[Satsuma han]], he journeyed to Paris in [[1884]] with the intention of studying law and pursuing a career in that field. He ran into a number of other Japanese there, however, including Paris-based art dealer [[Hayashi Tadamasa]] and painter [[Yamamoto Hosui|Yamamoto Hôsui]], who recognized in Kuroda a talent for painting. They recommended him to Raphael Collin, an Academic painter who had recently become quite popular for his ''plein-air'' works in a more impressionistic style. Seiki began studying under Collin, and in addition to receiving training in the basics of proper (highly realistic) Academic-style oil painting, he was also encouraged to experiment with ''plein-air'' painting, and with impressionistic styles.<br />
<br />
One of his works was accepted by a Salon in [[1891]], and two years later, his painting ''Morning Toilette'' was shown at ''the'' Salon, the Salon des Beaux-Arts. ''Morning Toilette'' would cause quite a scandal when shown in Tokyo shortly afterwards, being one of the first full nudes (in the highly realistic Western style & oil painting medium) ever displayed in a Japanese art exhibition.<br />
