About the Item

Japanese woodblock print by Utagawa Yoshiika 落合芳幾 (1833-1904), unframed. About the Artist: Yoshiiku was a popular ukiyo-e printmaker during the Meiji period. It is thought that he was the son of a tea house proprietor, hence his particular skill success in the portrayal of various beauties from teahouses and restaurants. Yet, he was an artist comfortable across subject matter and is recognized for his fierce portrayal of famous historical warriors. Yoshiiku was a student of Kuniyoshi and a contemporary rival of the famed Yoshitoshi. He signed his name Utagawa Yoshiiku, Ikkeisai Yoshiiku and Chokaro Yoshiiku. Beyond ukiyo-e, the woodblock printing process was used for newspaper illustrations before the introduction of photography. Yoshiiku worked as an illustrator for both the Tokyo Daily News and the Tokyo Illustrated News. His works can be found at the Brooklyn Museum, The Los Angeles Country Museum of Art, Museum of Fine Arts Boston.
