Yoshitoyo initially studied painting under Kunisada, but left Kunisada and joined Kuniyoshi. It is said that Kunisada deliberately gave him the name of Yoshitoyo at a time when he had already taken the name Toyokuni. His period of painting was from Ansei to Keio, and by the end of the Edo period, in addition to samurai paintings, he excelled at painting measles and kites, and also painted Yokohama.
