Ippitsusai Bunchō (Шаблон:Lang, Шаблон:Floruit) was a Japanese ukiyo-e artist,[1] best known for his yakusha-e actor prints in narrow hosoban dimensions.Шаблон:Sfn Bunchō and Katsukawa Shunshō are credited with having developed kabuki actor portraiture focuses on producing likenesses of the subjects, rather than stereotyped faces.Шаблон:Sfn

Little is known about Bunchō's life. His birth surname was Mori, and he is believed to have studied painting under Ishikawa Yukimoto of the Kanō school.Шаблон:Sfn[1]

The earliest known works attributed to Bunchō are the illustrations to Hachimonji Jishō II's Eiga asobi nidai otoko (1755). Between 1766 and 1774 he made a large number of actor prints in the narrow vertical hosoban dimensions. In 1770 he produced the three-volume Ehon butai ōgi (Шаблон:Lang, "Picture-book of Stage Fans") with Katsukawa Shunshō, which depicts the leading kabuki actors of the day on ōgi hand fans; Bunchō handled the onnagata—male actors who portray female characters.Шаблон:Sfn It was popular and went through multiple printings.Шаблон:Sfn

From 1769 he also made bijin-ga prints of female beauties that show the influence of Suzuki Harunobu.Шаблон:Sfn These became his major subject, and in the An'ei era (1772–81) no actor prints of his are known.Шаблон:Sfn

Bunchō's last known work was an e-goyomi picture calendar from 1790. He had few students, one of whom was Kishi Bunshō (1754–96).Шаблон:Sfn
