Dance of Eternal Love
Toshi Yoshida- Toshi Yoshida was the son of Hiroshi Yoshida, one of the most famous woodblock print artists of the 20th century. He followed the family tradition, and centuries old Japanese craft, of woodblock printmaking adopting and developing his signature style. His close relationship with his father was instrumental in the pursuit of his art. Together, father and son traveled Japan, and the globe, examining and sketching people and places around them.
Dance of Eternal Love- Perhaps Yoshida's most stunning wildlife subject, this incredible print shows a pair of white herons in a beautiful pose. With the snow falling heavily all around, these beautiful birds dance gracefully in the image. The snow in this print is heavily embossed- a wonderful effect that gives the print depth.

| Artist Bio: |
Toshi Yoshida was the eldest son of Hiroshi Yoshida.
Like his father he undertook extensive travels all over the world. His trips took him to the U.S.A., Canada, India,
Africa, Australia and even to Antarctica. Most of his print subjects are focused on landscapes or animals depicted in a realistic style.
After the death of his father Hiroshi Yoshida, he even experimented in abstract art for a while but returned to realistic landscape prints.
