Kimono with clouds and waves design, Tokyo Yuzen

After the war, art colleges such as Tokyo University of the Arts and Bunsei University of Art in Tochigi Prefecture started to teach Yuzen as an academic subject. Tokyo was the first to have a specialized curriculum for Yuzen as a higher education subject. Endeavoring to disseminate Yuzen, Nakamura Katsuma's son, Nakamura Kouya, worked hard to establish the dyeing course at Tokyo University of the Arts.
