Description
This woodblock print by Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, titled 'Maisaka', showcases a large pleasure boat sailing on a blue sea, adorned with flags and filled with figures, rendered in the traditional ukiyo-e style.
Tsukioka Yoshitoshi (1839-1892) was a Japanese printmaker regarded as one of the last great masters of ukiyo-e, the art of woodblock printing. His career spanned the transition from traditional Japanese life to modernisation, and his work reflects this change, often depicting historical and contemporary subjects with a flair for the dramatic and the macabre. Yoshitoshi's prints are known for their dynamic compositions, expressive figures, and innovative use of colour. He influenced many subsequent generations of artists. 'Maisaka' depicts a large, ornate pleasure boat sailing on a blue sea. The boat is adorned with flags and banners, and filled with figures under a striped awning. The stern of the boat is red and gold, with a fan-like structure extending into the water. In the background, a distant mountain rises against a pale sky. The print is characterised by its fine lines, flat planes of colour, and decorative details, typical of ukiyo-e.

Artist Biography
Yoshitoshi
Yoshitoshi, born Tsukioka Kin'ichi, was arguably the last great master of ukiyo-e. He witnessed the decline of traditional Japanese woodblock printing during the Meiji era, as photography and Western printing techniques gained popularity. Despite this, Yoshitoshi was determined to revitalise the art form, experimenting with new subjects and styles. His efforts ensured ukiyo-e's survival into the 20th century. He is known for his series *One Hundred Aspects of the Moon*. Other notable works include *Beautiful Woman with Fan*, *Desire*, and *Akashi*.
Yoshitoshi's art is characterised by its dramatic intensity and historical themes. He was fascinated by the supernatural, often depicting ghosts, demons, and scenes of violence. His mentor was Utagawa Kuniyoshi, who also explored similar themes. Yoshitoshi's skill in portraying emotion and movement, combined with his mastery of colour and composition, made his prints stand out. His work reflects a turbulent period in Japanese history, capturing the anxieties and uncertainties of a society undergoing rapid change.
Collectors are drawn to Yoshitoshi's prints for their striking imagery and historical value. His works offer a glimpse into a transitional period in Japan, blending traditional artistic techniques with modern sensibilities. His prints appeal to those who appreciate art that is both visually stunning and intellectually stimulating, preserving a vital part of Japanese cultural heritage.
