Tsukioka Yoshitoshi (1839-1892) was a Japanese print maker. His artistic career bridged between the Edo Period (1600-1868) and the Meiji Period (1868-1912). With the start of the Meiji Period, Western technologies and ideologies were introduced to Japan. The art of printmaking had long been a tradition in Japan, especially revered during the Edo Period; however, the introduction of photography began to threaten the tradition. Yoshitoshi is considered to be the last great ukiyo-e artist that used his prints to revitalize and modernize the tradition of prints. His series One Hundred Aspects of the Moon was his last great print series.
