Quotations
Yeh Wang (1826-1889), a master craftsman born in Chiayi, founded the Taiwanese branch of the industry, and though his work is rare these days, you can still see some of his original figures in Ciji Temple in Syuejia near Tainan (see p.333).[...]Chiayi is still home to numerous koji craftsmen - in addition to its vibrant colours, koji is unique in that everything is handmade.
