Toyotomi Hideyoshi (February 2, 1536, or March 26, 1537 - September 18, 1598) was a preeminent daimyo, warrior, general, samurai, and politician of the Sengoku period who is regarded as Japan's second "great unifier".

He financed the construction, restoration and rebuilding of many temples standing today in Kyoto. Woodcut by Utamaro Kitagawa, circa 1804-06.
