Hiroshi Yoshida (1876–1950) was born in Kurume in Fukuoka prefecture. He studied art in Kyoto and Tokyo and began his career as a painter, turning to woodblock print only after 1920. In 1925 he established his own atelier, where he supervised a group of carvers and printers, in the manner of the collaborative system typical of the traditional ukiyo-e. However, Yoshida was also actively engaged in the printmaking process.
He drew inspiration not only from Japanese landscape, but also from his travel experiences. A keen traveller, Yoshida visited, among others, the United States, Europe, India, and Africa.
