Yozo Hamaguchi was born as the third son to the Yamasa soy sauce magnate Gihei Hamaguchi, a collector of Southern School paintings who also studied painting himself. Yozo developed the unique mezzotint copperplate engraving method to produce masterful works of art that have won him many admiring fans. In 1996, he returned to Japan after spending extended periods of time in Paris and San Francisco. In accordance with his wishes, the collection of art that he brought back to Japan with him was used to found this museum.
