At an early age he absorbed the techniques of old-style woodblock printing from the artisans in his father’s studio. He studied from 1932 to 1935 at the Taiheiyo-Gakai (Pacific Painting Association) which had been co-founded by his father. Before the Pacific War he traveled widely with his father in Asia, Europe, Egypt and the USA. He continued to travel on his own, especially in Mexico, the USA and Canada and Africa. He remained in his father’s studio until Hiroshi’s death in 1950 and ran the studio thereafter. His early works, such as Tokyo at Night – Supper Wagon, 1938 IHL Cat. , are very close to his father’s and he continued in his father’s naturalistic style up to the 1950s. In 1952 he began to make larger abstract prints in the sosaku hanga manner without the help of his workshop. In 1984 he published the first of many illustrated children’s books on African wildlife (Dobutsu Ehon Shirizu) which have continued up to the early 1990s. In 1966 he published a book together with the artist Yuki Rei, Japanese Print Making: A Handbook of Traditional and Modern Techniques, which has been influential throughout the printmaking world. His workshop has continued to produce reprints of his father’s and his own early prints. The print is signed lower right. This print measures approximately.
