| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research project reexamined the process of gradual change of Nanga during the 19th century, by taking up the question posed by the qualitative transformation in the mobility available to female artists and interpersonal relationships, these female artists were able to forge. In contrast to the peregrinations organized around the intimate regional coteries which was typical of the Edo period, movement of the late-Edo and early-Meiji period came to signify venturing beyond the perimeters of their established social sphere. As a result of such undertaking, they did not only find themselves in the position to expand their network of patrons, but also devise the means of contending with the institutionalization of the fine arts. With specific focus on the careers of Ema Saikou, Chou Kouran, Okuhara Seiko, and Noguchi Shouhin, I identified the salient features informing the social habitus of female painters and examined the influence these had on their modes of expression.

明治維新後、絵画活動も大きく変化した。特に本研究は、明治以降に現れる新しい造形活動ではなく、江戸時代的な価値観に支えられた南画に焦点を当てるとともに、周縁的な存在である女性南画家に注目し、明治の絵画界を今までとは異なった視点から照射しようとしたものである。移動と交友圏の質的変化こそ、造形活動を支える社会的基盤の重要性を浮き彫りにするものはない。江戸時代的な移動と交友圏に支えられて活動した奥原晴湖（1837-1913）をはじめとした多くの女性南画家が明治絵画界の表舞台から消えていったのに対して、新時代に適応した希有な女性南画家が野口小蘋（1847-1917）であった。その対照的な特徴を考察した。
