Biographical / Historical
Mastering photography under Shimooka Renjo, Ogawa opened a studio in Tokyo in 1884. In 1888, he established Japan's first collotype printing business, and in the following year he formed the Nihon Shashin-kai (Japanese Photographic Association) with Tokyo Imperial University professor William Burton. Ogawa was often commissioned to photograph the Imperial family, and was the first to establish dry-plate technology in Japan. His first name can also be read as Isshin and Kazuma.
