Specialist note

Series of Yoshida’s oil paintings were recently discovered in Aioi City, Hyogo Prefecture. It is known that Yoshida stayed at Harima shipyard in Aioi City during 1944-1945 and worked on many of his paintings with the motifs related to Harima shipyard. The current work may be one of the paintings Yoshida worked during that time in Aioi City.
