Masanao (sculptor)
was a noted Japanese sculptor of ''netsuke'' from the Kyoto area. He is thus associated with the Kyoto school. His works often depict animals, and he is considered to have been one of the greatest artists working in the ''netsuke'' art form. Biography He was mentioned in the ''Sōken Kishō'' (装劍奇賞), a compilation published in Osaka in 1781 by Inaba Tsūyrū, in which over 50 ''netsuke'' masters are listed.

Frederick Meinertzhagen remarks: Masanao of Kyoto should not be confused with the series of ''netsuke-shi'' from Ujiyamada, Ise Province (modern day Ise) ...
