Other information
English: From the Los Angeles Herald caption:
HENRY T. HAZARD. "Make him one wise man, one man who has action among other men, much action, much spirit, much wisdom. Am I wrong? I think it is not so when I see his face; he is what you call unselfish, and the man who doe not get rich from his good work for all people He knows much law, and I make him a great man in my native costume. I do more than all. I make him a Buddhist priest—No, no, I do not make him an inner priest. He has the mustache, which he should not have at all. See, I make the Kesa, or robes of the outer priest, upon him. He is learned man and knows the law and the rules of the land."
This is Aoki's version. The Los Angeles version is not so different, only that the sacred bowl the artist has given him represents in political parlance the campaign collection salver.
