About Dusk at Victoria Memorial Calcutta Yoshida Hiroshi Vintage Japanese Woodblock Print 1931
Printmaker and painter Yoshida Hiroshi was a leading figure of the Shin Hanga movement that revived traditional Japanese woodblock printing in the early 20th century. Among this collection is set of postcards depicting India of the 1930s. The postcards, which were very popular, were made by Japanese artist Yoshida Hiroshi in his country's woodblock print style, expressly for Western audiences. Yoshida was the rare Japanese on a subcontinent teeming with Western artists trying to make money from an exotic locale.Now 85 years old, the postcards portray the country's canonical monuments, such as the Taj Mahal, the Madurai Meenakshi temple and the Ellora caves, in minute detail and beautiful pastel colours.About the Posters
