Memoirs of a Japanese War Bride Art print

From 1944 to the early 50’s thousands of Japanese women fell in love with servicemen, married and started new lives in alien countries.
It must have been an incredible struggle to leave their extended families, friends, country and merge into a new culture.

This started out as a full length Geisha dancing but somewhere along the way this concept just grew of it’s own accord, funny how that happens;)
