Subject:Help with Old Japanese 1941 Translation?
Posted By: Leigh Thu, Mar 28, 2019 IP: 1.129.108.133

Hi,

Could someone please help translate this entire 1941 Japanese article and extra writing on the back of this painting? My parents are currently in Japan and have struggled to find someone who can read this old Japanese dialect. I realise it is a big job but it is very important to have an entire translation for my research. Thanks so much, much appreciated. Cheers Leigh

Thank you so much! And so fast.

Do you know where I could find any information on the All Hokkaido Art Association/Federation? I can't seem to find anything on the internet.

Also, do you know where the Kujira Peninsula is?

Thanks again!

Dear Leight,

If you want to know anything more about the above Association and Federation you have to learn Japanese.
On the Japanese language net under the title;
全道美術協会 and 全道美術家連盟 there are a lot of sites on them. Under the "Zendouten" - Image - you will find photos on their latest exhibition.
As of the Kujira (Whale) Peninsula is the old alternative name for Cape Chikyu on the outskirts of Muroran city in Hokkaido. The name of the sea-shore
around is called Itangi or Itanki - dotted with strange shaped rock formations.

With regards,
I.Nagy
