Kaii Higashiyama
Kaii Higashiyama ( Higashiyama Kai'i, July 8, 1908 - May 6, 1999)
was a Japanese artist.
Born in Yokohama, Higashiyama graduated from the Tokyo National
University of Fine Arts and Music in 1931. He was awarded the Japan
Art Institute prize in 1956. In 1968 he completed large murals on
the New Imperial Palace, and in 1969 he was given the Order of Cultural
Merits and designated as a person with cultural merit. In 1975 and
in 1980, he completed murals in the Toshodaiji Temple.
The paintings are the excellent portrayal of the events and scenes
that we see around us. The painters are the best cameras of the
world. They reproduce many different types of pictures. They even
draw imaginary pictures that do not exist in this world. We tend
to use both thinned oil paints and dense oil paints. Masterpieces
can be dyed more than once, but each time it may be different from
the existing paintings.h
