Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

京狩野家は10代、鶴澤家は7代に渡り、江戸時代の京都で活躍した絵師の家だった。この中には狩野山楽や山雪のように、比較的研究が進んでいる絵師が複数いる。しかし、研究がほとんど進んでおらず、生没年すら不明な絵師も多い。そこで彼らに関する基礎データの集積を行った。集積したデータをもとに江戸時代の京都で一貫して活動した京狩野家と鶴澤家の実態が把握できれば、新しい近世京都画壇の見方ができる可能性がある。俵屋宗達、尾形光琳、円山応挙、伊藤若冲などの個性的な絵師たちと京狩野家、鶴澤家の比較によって、近世京都画壇の構造が見えてくる可能性がある。そのための基礎作りが本研究の学術的意義、社会的意義だと考えた。
