4. Overview of the Research Project (About 150 words) Note: If you have changed your project since the time ofapplication submission, please write clearly where you made changes.

This study focuses on Nishikawa Sukenobu (1671-1750), an ukiyo-e artist active in Kyoto in the mid Edo
period, and examines the chain of knowledge that extended from the 18th-century Kyoto-Osaka (Kamigata)publishing culture to the urban culture of Edo.
While Sukenobu was an ukiyo-e artist who had great influence, not only on Kamigata, but also on Edo
ukiyo-e artists, and was an important figure in the development of a diverse publishing culture, he neverthelesshas not been adequately researched to date. The purpose of this project is to clarify the development ofintellectual activity centered on Sukenobu and the influx of Kamigata culture into Edo.

（様式）As one of our research activities, we hold a monthly workshop at the Art Research Center to study
Sukenobu's kimono design book Shōtoku Hiinagata. With a variety of researchers from textile studies,
literature, and art history as members, we will analyze the patterns depicted in Shōtoku Hiinagata and consider
their relationships with the literary and dramatic works that provided the basis for the patterns.

5. Overview of the Research Results Note: We may use this section for the Center’s PR.

We have been holding a monthly workshop dedicated to the study of the kimono design book, Shōtoku
Hiinagata, by Sukenobu, for the purpose of reprinting and analyzing it. In 2019, a total of 12 workshops were
held (59th-70th since the start of this project). To specify, the text on a kimono design template is translated
into modern Japanese and the colours and patterns of the kimono are reproduced by explaining the text, while
also considering the cultural background. After the presentations, the colours and patterns were then indexedbased on the content of the reprints.
In addition, we held the exhibition "Women, Women and Women: Life of Japanese Women in Ukiyo-e"(April-June, 2019, The Shōtō Museum of Art) under the supervision of research representative Ishigami andmember Kamo, to disseminate the results of the research group.
All transcriptions and narratives were completed in FY 2019. We also invited Professor Iwao Nagasaki tohold a study meeting on March 18, 2020 to answer questions about the issues discussed in the previous study
meetings.
In fiscal 2020, we will review the text recast into modern orthography (honkoku), review the annotations
and notes, and write articles for publication.
