"Despite some explicitly anti-Japanese art by Gao Jianfu and his followers at the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War in 1937, most works displayed unmistakable signs of Japanese stylistic influence, which aroused the ire of patriots as well as artistic conservatives."

Excellent article; approving both hooks. I had just read about the Lingnan School in the Hong Kong Museum of History, so it's pretty cool seeing it covered in detail on Wikipedia. A great contribution, and hopefully this hook will spread more awareness of the topic. Yue🌙 01:28, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
