The Torii school was a school of ''[[ukiyo-e]]'' painting and printing founded in [[Edo]]. The primary producers of [[kabuki]] theater signboards and other promotional materials, the Torii were among those whose work led to the development of ''ukiyo-e''. Their style was one of the primary influences in the ''ukiyo-e'' depiction of actors and kabuki scenes for much of the 18th century. Today, kabuki signboards are still sometimes painted by members of the Torii family.
