Toshi Yoshida (1911 - 1995)
Mt. Holy Cross, Vail, Colorado, 1966

Toshi Yoshida - Toshi Yoshida was the son of Hiroshi Yoshida, one of the most famous woodblock print artists of the 20th century. He followed the family tradition, and centuries old Japanese craft, of woodblock printmaking adopting and developing his signature style. His close relationship with his father was instrumental in the pursuit of his art. Together, father and son traveled Japan, and the globe, examining and sketching people and places around them.

Yoshida’s North American subjects are breathtaking images from his travels in the U.S. The field in the foreground is covered in wonderful spring wildflowers. The snow capped mountains rise behind- incredible.
