Hirezaki Eiho
Details
For this meetup, we will check out an exhibition of Hirezaki Eiho.
"Hirezaki Eihō (1880-1968) was an artist who flourished from the late Meiji to the Shōwa era. He studied under Migita Toshihide, a pupil of the ukiyo-e artist Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, and created kuchi-e (frontispieces: multicolored woodblock prints inserted at the beginning of books), covers, and illustrations for novels and literary magazines, capturing the hearts of the general public. However, his achievements are rarely mentioned. This exhibition shines a light on the little-known “last ukiyo-e artist,” exploring how Eihō was flourished during the final era when ukiyo-e prints were a part of everyday life."
