Description : Saturday, 5 August 2006 How about our translation for the two following war prints, TK-TG-01 : Japan-China Meeting for Peace Negotiations TK-TG-02 : Imperial Arrival on Triumphal Return I refered to the very usuful reference book for Kiyochika "KIYOCHIKA-Artist of Meiji Japan" which was written in English by Henry D. Smith when they hold the exhibition at Santa Barbara Museum of Art in 1988. For your reference I enclosed an image of page 90 depicting Kiyochika's almost identical war print titled " Meeting for Peace Negotiations" This reference book has 128 pages with a lot of full color print images by Kiyochika but, unfortunately, he never mentioned Koitsu's name and related story. Anyway it is very helpful for me to learn relevant translation of woodblock print community and Kiyochika issues.
