During the Japanese occupation of much of China during the 1930s and 40s there was one highly respected, elderly Chinese artist who was frequently commissioned to produce paintings for the collections of his captors. Qi Bashi "...responded to Japanese officers' demands...with pictures of crabs inscribed with defiant witticisms." The Chinese had a long tradition in the arts of expressing their displeasure with occupiers through genuinely veiled, scholarly references. Qi Bashi was already 80 years old when confronted with this unpleasant situation. He "...delighted in painting these crustaceans and took advantage of their sideways locomotion to satirize lawlessness and unruly behavior in people." (1)

TSUKIOKA/TAISO YOSHITOSHI (Owariya Yonejiro): 1839 - 1892 Go directly to print list Tsukioka Yoshitoshi was the last and greatest genius of traditional ukiyo-é. Born in the last years of the Tokogawa Shogunate, he lived most of his adult life in the Meiji era of modernisation. Influenced by Western art, he strove against the loss of traditional Japanese values, devoting most of his work to reminding the Japanese who he felt they were, and should be. His innovations in composition and line, his ability to capture a personality or a moment, are unique in ukiyo-é, and rare in the history of art. Yonejiro was the son of a rich merchant who had bought samurai status.
