#1764 Important Documentary Dutch P.O.W. Painted Bamboo Pot, dated July 1943
Only 1 left in stockA very rare historically important documentary bamboo brush or pen pot drawn in ink signed 'Juli (July in Dutch) 1943' in the Tjihapit Internment Camp for Dutch Women and Children in the Japanese Occupied Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia).
The "cartoon" style drawings are curiously romanticised - I speculate, either to escape from the well documented brutal reality of camp conditions or it may have been produced, for propaganda purposes, under pressure from their concentration camp commanders, to present a deceptively glamorous image to the outside world.
Condition - very good.
12.8cm (5 inches) high. .
1943年 日军Tjihapit集中营战俘作竹筒
非常少见的具有历史文献意义的竹筒。上面标记1943年7月(荷文)。作者应为Tjihapit集中营中的战俘。Tjihapit集中营是日本占领荷属东印度群岛(现印度尼西亚)时在此设立的荷兰妇女儿童战俘营。卡通形式的画风将战俘营的景象描绘得带有浪漫色彩。我怀疑这样做的原因可能是作者想从意识上逃离集中营条件恶劣的残酷现实,也有可能是集中营的日军为了向外界宣传,逼迫作者把集中营描绘成美好的景象。
品相:很好,高12.8厘米。
