Tomio Kondo (Kondo Tomio, 1900-1957) was an amateur photographer who lived on and energetically photographed Sado island in the Sea of Japan.Kondo was born on 24 January 1900 to a landowning family in Kanazawa village (subsequently part of Kanai, which in turn was amalgamated within "Sado City"). He started with a camera at 18, and also had a keen interest in archaeology. Kondo photographed landscapes and a great variety of life on the island, as well as the figures from literary and artistic circles on the mainland who came to visit during the infancy of Sado's tourism industry. He financed this by gradually selling off land owned by the family.Kondo was keen to keep up with the latest news on the island. He helped set up the Sado museum (Sado Hakubutsukan), of which he became a trustee, and organizations devoted to mountain walking and botany.
