Maruki Riyō
Maruki Riyō (丸木 利陽?, 1854–1923) was a prominent Japanese photographer during the late-Meiji period.[1]
Maruki opened his first studio in the Uchisaiwaicho district of Tokyo in 1880, and his business continued up until the early 1920s.[2]
In 1888 he was asked to help in producing a new official photograph of the Emperor as the one then in use was ten years old.[2]
