Furuya Kōrin (1875–1910) was a Japanese artist, illustrator, and designer active in the Kyoto arts and crafts circle in the Meiji period of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His pseudonym references Ogata Kōrin (1658–1716), also from Kyoto, and he described himself as a “Kōrin of the modern age”. Among his works are popular illustrated books in the Rinpa tradition. Kōrin Patterns (Kōrin moyō) (1907), a two-volume, ink-on-paper work originally conceived as a sample book for the kimono industry, became popular with people interested in fashion. John T. Carpenter of the Metropolitan Museum of Art describes the book as “impressive”. It contains images based on wave patterns as well as the traditional boatman in a skiff. Other works published by Yamada Unsōdō include several orihon (concertina-type binding) books with patterns based on flowers and plants (1905), pine trees (1905) and bamboo (1907). His works are held in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam.
