    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The title is a latin phrase with biblical origins that translates to &quot;where are you marching?&quot;. This quote describes the lone Japanese soldier with his back turned to us, standing at the crossroads in a barren landscape, uncertain of where to go. This surrealist depiction portrays melancholic state of Japan, as the nation faced an uncertain future after its defeat in World War 2. ]]></dcterms:description>
