    <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[A surrealist painting that depicts the artist&#039;s sentiment towards the defeat of Japan following the second world war. In the foreground, we see a heap of human bodies stacked up in a rough pyramid shape in front of a barren desolate landscape. Despite the gloom appearance, there are subtle visual clues that conveys Fukuzawa&#039;s hope for Japan&#039;s revival. For example, rather than being in a state of decay, the cadavers appear muscular and robust, as if they still possess the potential to lift themselves up. ]]></dcterms:description>
