    • Other famous places
    Sakai Hoitsu was a painter who flourished during the late Edo period. He held Ogata Korin in high esteem as his private mentor and, while inheriting Korin's style, added a refined sense of "shadatsu" (sophisticated detachment). He established his own unique style, depicting the flowers, birds, and seasonal beauties of nature with rich poetic sentiment, effectively becoming the founder of the "Edo Rimpa" school. His grave is located within the temple grounds.
