Kano Eisenin Michinobu 狩野栄川院典信
狩野栄川院典信 Kano Eisen Michinobu (1730-1790)
Kano school painter of the mid-Edo period. The eldest son of 狩野栄川古信 Kano Eisen Hisanobu (1696-1731). He was adopted by 狩野受川 Kano Jusen (1715-1731), but when his foster father died prematurely, he succeeded to the Kano family in Kobikicho at the age of 2. He was involved in the production of paintings for the walls of Edo Castle and the Imperial Palace, as well as paintings of folding screens presented from Korea. He was favored by Shogun Yoshimune Tokugawa (1684-1751) and Ieharu (1737-1786), and raised the status of the Kobikicho Kano family to the highest level among shogunate painters (Oku-Eshi). Among his students were 鈴木鄰松 Suzuki Rinsho (1732-1803) and 鳥文斎栄之 Chobunsai Eishi (1756-1829), who later became an ukiyoe artist.
