  • Biography

    Kinichiro Ishikawa was born in 1871 in Japan. He passed away in Tokyo at the age of 74. During the period he was allocated to Taiwanese Government as a translator, he also taught art at elementary school. Within 19 years, his full dedication into art teaching and cultivation of Taiwanese first generation artists won him the title "Torchbearer of Modern Taiwanese Western Art." In Ishikawa's scenery paintings, it is easy to perceive his love for Taiwan; especially those of watercolor works finely capture humidity and hotness of Taiwan's weather.
