Yoshio Markino
Yoshio Markino was based in the UK from 1897 to 1942. His given surname was Makino but he preferred to stylize it as Markino.
His skill in depicing the foggy streetscapes of London in sketches and watercolours earned him commissions with high-profile publications, and with it, much critical acclaim.
Markino became a respected figure in art and literary circles, even publishing several autobiographies during his stay in this country. He was also a member of a group of Japanese artists who worked in London alongside Ushibara Mokuchu.
