The Hasegawa school (長谷川派, -ha) was a
school (style) of Japanese painting founded in the 16th century by Hasegawa Tōhaku
and disappeared around the beginning of the 18th century.
The school painted mostly Sesshū. He painted largely in monochrome ink, in largely Chinese-inspired styles, and is particularly famous for his depictions of monkeys.[citation needed]
