Kawai, Senro [Senro; Bokusen; Usen; Tansō; Kyūsetsu Jōjin; Chigen Dojin]
Japanese seal-carver, scholar and connoisseur. He was the son of Kawai Sen’emon, a Kyoto seal-engraver.

In 1900 Senro went to China, where he studied under Wu Changshi, with whom he had previously corresponded. Under Wu he learnt modern carving techniques. After returning to Japan and passing his family name to a pupil, he went to live in Tokyo at the invitation of the patron Mitsui Teihiyō [Takakata] (1867–1945).
Subsequently he visited China almost every year and concentrated on importing and studying Qing period (1644–1911) calligraphy, painting and culture. ...
