Arai Kanpo
【Kitten】
The cat looks like it is trying to groom itself so intently that it resembles a Hannya, but the overall silhouette and depiction of the hands show that the artist has carefully observed the cat before painting it. After visiting India, Kanpo began to create many Buddhist paintings, but he also created adorable works like this one.
