Comments - Striking design from the Sino-Japanese War of Second Army troops landing on the Jinzhou (Liaodong) Peninsula in northeastern China. Lieutenant-General Yamaji wades ashore in the center, dressed in a heavy fur-lined coat and tall black leather boots, carrying a sword. Behind him other officers disembark from a small boat carrying personal in from the larger ship offshore at far left. A Japanese flag hangs from the stern of the craft, and additional boats and sailors are silhouetted along the horizon. An atmospheric image, beautifully shaded, the three central figures contrasting well with the soft gradations of the water and sky. The Boston Museum of Fine Arts has this image in its collection. A very handsome composition.
