Tsukioka Yoshitoshi

Tsukioka Yoshitoshi
Tsukioka Yoshitoshi (30 April 1839 – 9 June 1892) (Japanese: also named Taiso Yoshitoshi ) was a Japanese artist.He is widely recognized as the last great master of Ukiyo-e, a type of Japanese woodblock printing. He is additionally regarded as one of the form's greatest innovators. His career spanned two eras – the last years of Edo period Japan, and the first years of modern Japan following the Meiji Restoration. Like many Japanese, Yoshitoshi was interested in new things from the rest of the world, but over time he became increasingly concerned with the loss of many aspects of traditional Japanese culture, among them traditional woodblock printing.
