Original Japanese WWII Signed Portrait of Kichisaburō Nomura, Japanese Ambassador to United States on December 7th, 1941 - 9¾ x 12¾”
-
Original Item. One-of-a-Kind. Kichisaburō Nomura (野村 吉三郎, Nomura Kichisaburō; December 16, 1877 – May 8, 1964) was an admiral in the Imperial Japanese Navy and was the ambassador to the United States at the time of the attack on Pearl Harbor. In his memoirs, Hull credited Nomura for trying sincerely to prevent the war. While the Japanese consulate struggled to decipher their own code, Washington had broken it and Hull knew how Nomura was being used by Tokyo as a convenient time-buying ploy. All in vain, but Nomura, who understood the U.S. and respected it, always hoped for the breakthrough for peace and believed it was possible.
This is an outstanding signed portrait of the Japanese Ambassador to the United States during Pearl Harbor, Kichisaburō Nomura. The frame measures 9¾ x 12¾” and is absolutely period, with two newspaper articles at the bottom of the frame. The articles mention the de-purging of Japanese wartime leaders after the end of the war.
This is an outstanding piece, perfect for any WWII collection. Comes ready for further research and display!
