Kao (active early 15th century) was a Japanese priest-painter whose work is considered typical of early Muromachi painting.
He is especially known for his depiction of the legendary monk Kensu (Hsien-tzu in Chinese) at the moment he achieved enlightenment.
This type of painting was executed with quick brush strokes and a minimum of detail.
