Sugitani Yukinao was a court painter (''goyô eshi'') in service to the [[Shimazu clan]] of [[Satsuma han]]. His works include a ''Ryûkyûjin zagaku no zu'' and a ''Ryûkyûjin michigaku no zu'', scroll paintings depicting the [[1832]] [[Ryukyuan mission to Edo]] as it first entered the city, and then as members of the mission performed chamber music within the [[Satsuma Edo mansion]]. Both of these works are today held by the [[Eisei Bunko]].

Yukinao's style has been placed within the lineages of the [[Yano school]], and of the Sekkoku branch of the school of [[Sesshu|Sesshû]]. As court painter, he occasionally traveled with the lord of Satsuma to [[Edo]], and it was within such a context that he was able to witness and to paint these performances by the Ryukyuan mission.
