Elizabeth Keith was born in Scotland and was a self-taught artist. She travelled to China, Korea and the Philippines, painting watercolours. She later worked with Japanese print publisher Watanabe Shozaburo, founder of the shin hanga (new prints) movement who turned her paintings into woodblock prints using established Japanese techniques. The work provides an early example of twentieth-century fusion between Eastern and Western arts.
