    YOKOYAMA TAIKAN, a master of modern Japanese painting, aimed to innovate Japanese painting and contributed to the establishment of the Japan Art Institute together with OKAKURA TENSHIN. His works are characterized by bold compositions that break away from the conventional boundaries of Japanese painting and by a distinctive blurring technique. He is particularly known for his style called "Mōrōtai" (blurred style), which excels in depicting mist and haze. He also created many works featuring Mount Fuji.
