Japan: A demon, from Hyakumonogatari ('100 Ghost Stories'), Utagawa Yoshi'iku (1833-1904),1890

Utagawa Yoshiiku (1833 – 6 February 1904), also known as Ochiai Yoshiiku, was a Japanese artist of the Utagawa school. Born the son of teahouse proprietor Asakusa Tamichi in 1833, Yoshiiku became a student of ukiyo-e artist Utagawa Kuniyoshi toward the end of the 1840s. His earliest known work dates to 1852 when he provided the backgrounds to some actor prints by his master. Yoshiiku's works include the print Kokkei Wanisshi-ki ('Comical Record of Japanese History'), which employs the traditional theme of Hyakki Yako on contemporary Japanese military actions in China. He cooperated with Tsukioka Yoshitoshi in the production of the muzan-e or 'cruel pictures' series Eimei nijuhasshuku ('Twenty-eight famous murders with verse').
