List of Yōga painters explained

This is an alphabetical list of painters who are known for painting in the Yōga style. It has to be noted that some artists also painted in the Japanese Nihonga style, and that the division between the two groups could be blurred at points.

Artists are listed by the native order of Japanese names, family name followed by given name, to ensure consistency even though some artists may be known outside Japan by their western-ordered name.
