*''Japanese'': 尾形月耕 ''(Ogata Gekkou)''
Ogata Gekkô was a painter and [[woodblock printing|woodblock print]] artist of the ''[[ukiyo-e]]'' genre.
Gekkô's work was originally closely based upon that of [[Kikuchi Yosai|Kikuchi Yôsai]], and the artist was also inspired by [[Hokusai]], creating a series of one hundred prints of [[Mount Fuji]]. However, he did develop his own style, with significant stylistic elements from ''[[nihonga]]''. His works were exhibited at a number of exhibitions, both those held domestically by the [[Ministry of Education]] and internationally. His works were seen in [[World's Columbian Exposition|Chicago in 1893]], [[Exposition Universelle (1900)|Paris in 1900]], and London in 1910.
