An influential artist and educator, Kawamura Manshū was born in Kyoto and trained in the Nihonga tradition at Yamamoto Shunkyo’s (1871–1933) Sanaekai painting academy, assuming its leadership after Shunkyo’s death. He was first accepted by the Bunten exhibition in 1908 and became a regular participant, winning a special prize at the Bunten in 1916. He was also one of the new judges installed by the Ministry of Education during a major reform of the official exhibition system that saw the removal of Takeuchi Seihō and the other senior figures from the selection process, as well as the renaming from Bunten to Teiten.[1] Manshū continued to exhibit, winning a prize at the Teiten in 1922, when he also became full professor at the Kyoto Art and Crafts School. In 1931 he was made a member of the Imperial Art Academy and in 1936 he became principal of the Kyoto Art and Crafts School.
