Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1798–1861) is considered one of the greatest Japanese artists who, alongside Katsushika Hokusai (The Wave), dominated nineteenth century printmaking in Japan. Featuring over 150 works, the exhibition will present Kuniyoshi as a master of imaginative design and reveal his most inventive representations including his ingenuous use of the triptych.
