CREATORS

* Yoshida Hiroshi (Japanese, 1876–1950)  - artist
Yoshida Hiroshi, first a European-style oil and watercolor painter and later a print artist, is considered part of the <em>shinhanga</em> (new prints) movement, which aimed to revitalize Japan’s workshop-based printing practices. He was  particularly well known for his views of famous places. A world traveler who visited countries in Africa, Asia, Europe, and North America, Yoshida’s first international exhibition took place in 1899 at what is now the Detroit Institute of Arts. He had a wide collecting base in the United States.
