This thrust of this essay is to consider the changes and the relationship of thevarious infl uences in Hogai's works through a comparison of two works, Kannon with Hibo Kannon, and an analysis of Niosokki. From an analysis of these works, the newness of Hogai's later works can be seen in his technical use of ink painting and colour painting. Two other examples unrelated to motif are the uniformity of his brushstrokes and an expressive "smearing". Hogai's late works refl ect a wide range of elements: designsinherited from the early Edo period, the infl uence of techniques that appeared at the end of the Edo period and early Meiji period, techniques from Western painting, and Fenollosa's theories. The relationship between Hogai and Fenellosa cannot be reduced to the simplistic statement that "Japanese culture had changed after the acceptance of Western culture". It should, I suggest, be seen as a mutual exchange. Hogai's late works can only be understood as the product of a cultural exchange of multiple periods, places and people.
