A similar motif can be found in some works made by Japanese painters during the 1920s and 1930s, though there is no definitive evidence that Fu learned directly from them. Rather, I argue that Fu and his Japanese counterparts drew from an East Asian tradition for depicting national idols that was exemplified in Tianbao jiuru, a theme which had been shared between China and Japan for a long time.}, pages = {102--112}, title = {The Origins of the Red Sun Motif : National Idols in Chinese and Japanese Paintings}, volume = {2022}, year = {2023} }
