【水墨画】雪村周继 Sesson Shukei (1504-1589, Zen monk and ink painter)
Sesson Shukei (born Satake Heizo) (Japanese: 雪村; 1504 – c. 1589) was a Japanese Zen monk and painter from the Muromachi period.

He is the most important painter who followed the style of Sesshū Tōyō (1420-1506). His works are classic examples of Japanese ink painting which was imported via many artists from China. He produced many landscapes.

He travelled to Aizu at least twice to give lessons in painting to the daimyō Ashina Moriuji – first in 1546, and then again in 1561 after Moriuki's retirement.
