Yoshitoshi- Yoshitoshi was the most influential artist of Meiji era Japan. His prints shimmer with energy and bring to life the tales of ancient Japan. Tragic love stories, the downfall of the once mighty, untouchable beauty, military conquests, and slices of everyday life. The stories go on and on. Yoshitoshi had the heart of a storyteller, spinning his tales and twisting the outcome to suit his art. He also had the immense talent of a woodblock master, bringing emotion and elegance to an image on paper.

Comments- A print of the great Japanese haiku poet, Matsuo Basho, speaking with two farmers during his time traveling. The poet is remembered for exploring the meaning and beauty of a mundane and inexplicable world. Yoshitoshi has depicted him speaking with two farmers whose difficult life is implied by the bony and blueish-colored jaw. Yoshitoshi's illustration is beautiful: fine soft colors shade the print while the composition of the men creates a contemplative scene.

Signed- Yoshitoshi; with series title, Tsuki hyaku-shi
Image size- 8 3/4" x 13" + margins as shown
Condition- In generally good condition overall as shown with excellent color and detail. No holes, tears, or damage to report. This print is not backed. Nice full margins, not trimmed. Slight spot in upper left corner, as shown (see photo). Nice overall and good choice for the discerning collector.
