Yoshikage Gotō (or Yoshikage II) (1858–1922) was a Meiji-period printmaker. Born in Osaka, Yoshikage II was the student Yoshitaki. He produced some senso-e, or 'war prints', depicting the Sino-Japanese War (1894-1895), as well as kaika-e, or 'enlightenment pictures'. Like many woodblock print designers of his time, Yoshikage II also worked as a newspaper and magazine illustrator.
