One collector points out, "The paintings of the older generation of painters in Japan were by Japanese masters who were indirectly influenced by the French style. Their prices are on the same level as world class masters, but their originality is very weak so they will probably not be able to get into the international market."
一位收藏家指出，第一代留日老畫家的畫，只是間接由日本師承法國風格，原創性薄弱，目前價位卻已與世界級大師的畫作相當，恐怕無法走上國際市場。
