The Web 1948 Law School Photo Collage
Dublin Core
Title
The Web 1948 Law School Photo Collage
Description
In the bottom right photo, an American soldier can be seen holding up the Japanese flag in a law school photo collage. It is noteworthy that the flag is not the Rising Sun Flag, or Kyokujitsu-ki, which was commonly used by the Japanese during World War II, but rather the "sun-mark flag," or Nisshōki. This may be symbolic of America's defeat of Japan in the war.
