上工
這幅木刻畫出自顧藝華之手，於《中華畫報》1.4（1943年11月）重製。木刻畫對日佔中國藝術的重要性在文獻中幾乎被全然忽視。木刻畫迄今幾乎特指中國抗日的藝術，儘管該風格屬於戰爭期間重要的「日佔」視覺文化。

Fengyang guniang (Maidens of Fengyang)
This woodcut, by an artist called Fang Wenxing, was reproduced in Zhonghua huabao (Chinese Pictorial) 1.4 (November 1943). The importance of the muke (woodcut) form to artistic practice in occupied China has been almost entirely overlooked in the literature. The muke form has hitherto been associated with the art of resistance in China, despite being an important part of “occupation” visual cultures as well.

總奮起
這幅木刻畫出自鉄鷹之手，於《中華畫報》2.2（1944年3月）重製。木刻畫對日據中國藝術的重要性在文學幾乎被全然忽視。木刻畫迄今幾乎特指中國反抗的藝術，儘管該風格屬於戰爭期間重要的「日佔」視覺文化。就這幅畫來言，當中中國男子身穿新國民制服並揮舞中華民國國旗，衝向看不見的敵軍，乍看就像抗戰早期的木刻畫。

Furen xiang (Portrait of a woman)
This woodcut, by an artist called Ma Wu (probably the most prolific of Chinese popular artists openly active during the Japanese occupation), was reproduced in Zhonghua huabao (Chinese Pictorial) 2.2 (March 1943). The importance of the muke (woodcut) form to artistic practice in occupied China has been almost entirely overlooked in the literature. The muke form has hitherto been associated with the art of resistance in China, despite being an important part of “occupation” visual cultures as well.

婦人像
這幅木刻畫出自馬午之手（可能為日佔時期受歡迎藝術家中作品最豐富的一位），於《中華畫報》2.2（1943年3月）重製。木刻畫對日據中國藝術的重要性在文學幾乎被全然忽視。木刻畫迄今幾乎特指中國反抗的藝術，儘管該風格屬於戰爭期間重要的「日據」視覺文化。

Zong fenqi (Uprising)
This woodcut, by an artist called Tie Ying (lit. “iron eagle”), was reproduced in Zhonghua huabao (Chinese Pictorial) 2.2 (March 1944). The importance of the muke (woodcut) form to artistic practice in occupied China has been almost entirely overlooked in the literature. The muke form has hitherto been associated with the art of resistance in China, despite being an important part of “occupation” visual cultures as well. In this case, the image of Chinese men, dressed in their “New Citizens Uniforms” (Xin guomin zhifu) and waving the ROC flag as they run into battle against enemies unseen, looks almost identical to early wartime resistance muke.

Shang gong (Off to work)
This woodcut, by an artist called Gu Yihua, was reproduced in Zhonghua huabao (Chinese Pictorial) 1.4 (November 1943). The importance of the muke (woodcut) form to artistic practice in occupied China has been almost entirely overlooked in the literature. The muke form has hitherto been almost exclusively associated with the art of resistance in China, despite being an important part of “occupation” visual cultures throughout the war.
