          Munekuni came from a family of metalworkers originally in the
          Saotome school. His name is mentioned in Masuda Myochin ke
          rekidai keifu (Genealogy of the Masuda Myochin school) as an artist
          living in Iwaki, Aizu province (present-day Fukushima Prefecture).
          He apprenticed to Myochin Munemasa, the twenty-sixth generation
          of the Myochin school in Edo. This crab appears to be the only
          known articulated sculpture signed by Munekuni.
