【Shunsuke Matsumoto】
(松本 竣介 Matsumoto Shunsuke, 1912–1948) was a Japanese painter, who primarily painted in the Yōga ("Western painting") style.
Matsumoto was born on April 19, 1912, in Shibuya, Tokyo, as Shunsuke Satō (佐藤俊介).
He spent his childhood and youth in northern Honshu, first in Hanamaki, Iwate, and later in Morioka, where he began attending middle school in 1925. The future sculptor Yasutake Funakoshi was among his schoolmates and in the same grade. Matsumoto contracted cerebrospinal meningitis which caused the loss of his hearing. Subsequently he developed an interest in becoming a painter, and left Morioka for Tokyo in 1929.
