The "Sequel to the Koya Library" done by principal artist Chō Gessho 張月樵 1765-1832 and Kazaore Yūjo 風折有丈 is a remarkable rarity that captures the vibrant world of art and poetry centered on haikai and haiga in Nagoya. It is justly celebrated by critics from Brown to Hillier and was featured in the Library of Congress' major Japanese art exhibition "The Floating World of Ukiyo-e: Shadows Dreams and Substance." With hundreds of full-page black and white woodblock images it is probably the most extensive original example of the Haiga aesthetic in existence.
