    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[This painting depicts the historic British surrender of Singapore to the Japanese after the Battle of Singapore in 1942. At a small office of an automobile factory, General Arthur Percival meets with General Yamashita Tomoyuki to sign the official surrender. The artist displays the power disparity between the Japanese and the British through their position around the table and their postures. General Yamashita sits steadfast and firm at the top of the table while the British fidgets cowardly and indecisively at the bottom. ]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Compared to Miyamoto&#039;s many war paintings, Hunger and Thirst is special in many ways. First, it wasn&#039;t commissioned by the military nor is it based on any specific military event or photograph. Miyamoto&#039;s conception for this painting came purely from this own imagination. Secondly, and most apparent, this painting does not portray a glorious subject. It shows an injured and downtrodden Japanese soldier surprised and horrified by his own face reflected from a puddle. Other than highlighting the horrors of war, this painting also depicts the dilemma of Japanese people trying to find their ideal self-identity in a caucasian-centered world. ]]></dcterms:description>
