プロフィール

吉田博は23歳で中川八郎と共に渡米し、デトロイト美術館で「日本画家水彩画展」を開催。翌年にはボストン美術館で2人展を開催し、大成功させた。吉田博の作品は「空気まで描く」と言われ、全作品が完売。その後渡欧してイギリス、フランス、ドイツ、イタリアなどを巡歴し、世界各地で展覧会を成功させた。
大正9年には渡辺庄三郎と出会い、渡辺木版画舗から木版画の出版を開始。大正14年には吉田版画スタジオを創設して自ら版元となり、多くの作品を世に送り出した。
欧米での知名度が高かったせいか、吉田のアトリエは戦後進駐軍の芸術サロンのようになったという。敗戦直後の昭和20年の秋には、いち早くダグラス・マッカーサー夫人もアトリエを訪問している。米軍の将校クラブでの版画講習会や、参加者をつのってのアトリエ見学会が毎月開かれるなど、吉田作品の人気はきわめて高く、後に故ダイアナ妃の執務室にも吉田博の絵画は飾られるようになった。

Profile 

At the age of 23, Hiroshi Yoshida moved to the United States with Hachiro Nakagawa and held a ``Japanese Painter Watercolor Exhibition'' at the Detroit Institute of Arts. The following year, a two-person exhibition was held at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, which was a great success. Hiroshi Yoshida's works are said to ``depict even the atmosphere,'' and all of his works are sold out. Afterwards, he traveled to Europe and toured England, France, Germany, Italy, and other countries, and successfully held exhibitions all over the world. In 1919, he met Shozaburo Watanabe and began publishing woodblock prints at Watanabe Mokuhangaho（Watanabe Woodprint Gallery）. In 1920, he established Yoshida Print Studio and became a publisher himself, releasing many works into the world. Perhaps because he was well known in Europe and America, Yoshida's atelier became like an art salon for the Occupation Forces after the war. In the fall of 1945, immediately after the defeat in the war, Mrs. Douglas MacArthur also visited the atelier. Yoshida's works are extremely popular, with printmaking classes held at the U.S. military officer's club and monthly studio tours for participants, and Hiroshi Yoshida's paintings are even displayed in the office of the late Princess Diana.
