memo
Tsukioka Yoshitoshi (月岡 芳年; also named Taiso Yoshitoshi 大蘇 芳年 1839 – 1892) was a Japanese artist.
He is widely recognized as the last great master of the ukiyo-e genre of woodblock printing and painting.
He is also 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.
Fair (restored) condition, unbacked, great colors, trimmed margins, pinholes. This ukiyo-e is an old work, so I have to put a piece of paper on the part with a hole to fix it.
