HIROSHI YOSHIDA: CHION-IN TEMPLE GATE

By Hiroshi Yoshida (1876-1950), signed Yoshida with seal Hiroshi
Japan, dated 1935

Color woodblock print on paper. Horizontal oban. Set inside a frame, behind glass. Signed Yoshida with seal Hiroshi, Jizuri (self-printed) seal to the left margin, further signed in pencil in Roman script to the outer-lower margin Hiroshi Yoshida. Title Romon (Chion-in Temple Gate), from the series Sakura hachidai (Eight Scenes of Cherry Blossoms).

The Chion-in temple in Kyoto is the head temple of the Pure Land Sect (Jodo-shu), founded by Honen in the 12th century. Its gigantic main gate, declared a National Treasure by the Japanese government, is one of the largest temple gates in Japan. The coats and jackets worn by the visitors who climb the massive stairs suggest that even though the cherries are in bloom, the weather is still a bit chilly.

SIZE of the sheet 27 x 41.2 cm

Condition: Very good condition with minor wear. Slight browning of paper, some fading, mounting holes, and creasing to the edges. Gently mounted on cardboard.

The jizuri seal is the most important mark on a Hiroshi Yoshida print as it helps distinguish an early edition where the printing process was directly supervised by him. Jizuri means "self-printed" and indicates that Hiroshi Yoshida played an active role in the printing process of the respective print. Hiroshi focused heavily on developing prints of the highest quality and normally only the prints with the best impressions received his jizuri seal.

Hiroshi Yoshida (1876-1950) began his artistic training with his adoptive father in Kurume, Fukuoka prefecture. Around the age of twenty, he left Kurume to study with Soritsu Tamura in Kyoto, subsequently moving to Tokyo and the tutelage of Shotaro Koyama. Yoshida studied Western-style painting, winning many exhibition prizes, and making several trips to the United States, Europe and North Africa selling his watercolors and oil paintings. While highly successful as an oil painter and watercolor artist, Hiroshi Yoshida turned to woodblock printmaking upon learning of the Western world’s infatuation with ukiyo-e. While widely traveled and knowledgeable of Western aesthetics, he maintained an allegiance to traditional Japanese techniques and traditions.
