Tsukioka Settei

Tsukioka Settei (月岡 雪鼎, 1710 – 22 January 1787) was a Japanese ukiyo-e artist.[1]

Settei was born in Ōmi Province and studied painting in Osaka in the style of the Kanō school under Takada Keiho. He was strongly influenced by the work of the ukiyo-e artist Nishikawa Sukenobu. Settei produced a number of printed works, but his bijin-ga paintings of female beauties are considered his most representative works.[1]
