Artist Biography:
Tomikichiro Tokuriki (1902–1999) was a renowned Japanese printmaker and painter, known for his contributions to the revival of traditional woodblock printing in the 20th century. Born in Kyoto into a family of artisans with a long history in the art of printing, Tokuriki studied at the Kyoto City School of Fine Arts and Crafts and the Kyoto City Specialist School of Painting. He became a key figure in the *sosaku hanga* (creative prints) movement, which emphasized the artist’s role in all stages of the printmaking process, from design to carving and printing. Tokuriki's works often depicted landscapes, traditional scenes, and famous landmarks of Japan, blending modern techniques with classic themes. He was also instrumental in training and inspiring younger artists, contributing significantly to the development and preservation of woodblock art.
