Kotozuka Eiichi 琴塚 英一 (1906-1979), born in Osaka, graduated from the Kyoto Kaiga Semmon Gakko (Technical School of Painting) in 1930. From 1932, he exhibited prints with Shun'yokai (Spring Principle Association), an artist's organization that exhibited Western-style art. He also exhibited with the government sponsored Teiten. He was a member of Nihon Hanga Kyokai (Japan Print Association) from 1938. In addition to print making, Kotozuka exhibited Japanese-style paintings with the artists' organization Seiryusha, which he helped found in 1929. He was also a co-founder of Koryokusha in 1948 with fellow artists Tokuriki Tomikichirō (1902-2000), Kamei Tōbei  (1901-1977) and Takahashi Tasaburō (1904-1977) which they set up to publish their creative prints - sosaku hanga. After WWII he created a number of designs for the publisher Uchida Publishing, including his most famous series Eight Snow Scenes of Kyoto.
