Title A name given to the resource Hunger and Thirst Subject The topic of the resource 飢渴 (Kikatsu) Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource 宮本三郎 (Miyamoto Saburō) Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Shōwa 18 (1943) Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource 130 x 97 cm Type The nature or genre of the resource Oil on Canvas Description An account of the resource Compared to Miyamoto's many war paintings, Hunger and Thirst is special in many ways. First, it wasn't commissioned by the military nor is it based on any specific military event or photograph. Miyamoto'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.
