Expression reflects people's emotion. That's why it has being attracting a lot of artists and inspiring them to create new art. Kobayashi Kiyochika is one of such artists and produced series of caricature named "Shinhan Sanjuni So", Thirty two expressions. He created an original painting technique called "Kosenga", drawing of light, to paint a great number of landscapes and war paintings as well as caricature for illstration of newspaper. In this artwork, he expressed weariness of a mother carrying her baby on her back, twisted face of a woman going to cry and so on. Viewers could not help laughing at the artworks in full of Kiyochika's humor.

Trimmed.

Kobayashi Kiyochika (1847-1915) was a Japanese ukiyo-e painter and printmaker of the Meiji period, most known for his prints of scenes around Tokyo which reflect the transformations of modernity. He has been described as "the last important ukiyo-e master and the first noteworthy print artist of modern Japan... [or, perhaps] an anachronistic survival from an earlier age, a minor hero whose best efforts to adapt ukiyo-e to the new world of Meiji Japan were not quite enough".

The son of a government official, Kiyochika was heavily influenced by Western art, which he studied under Charles Wirgman; he also based a lot of his work on Western etchings, lithographs, and photographs which became widely available in Japan in the Meiji period. Kiyochika also studied Japanese art under the great artists Kawanabe Kyōsai and Shibata Zeshin.

His woodblock prints stand apart from those of the earlier Edo period, incorporating not only Western styles but also Western subjects, as he depicted the introduction of such things as horse-drawn carriages, clock towers, and railroads to Tokyo. These show considerable influence from the landscapes of Hokusai and the work of Utagawa Kuniyoshi, but the Western influence is also unquestionable; these are much darker images on the whole, and share many features with Western lithographs and etchings of the time.

These were produced primarily from 1876 to 1881; Kiyochika would continue to publish ukiyo-e prints for the rest of his life, but also worked extensively in illustrations and sketches for newspapers, magazines, and books. He also produced a number of prints depicting scenes from the Sino-Japanese War and Russo-Japanese War.
