From Amazon

Wiese lived and traveled in China for six years,[2] selling merchandise as a young man. At the outbreak of World War I, he was captured by the Japanese, and turned over to the British. He spent five years as a prisoner, most of them in Australia, where his fascination with the animal life inspired him to start sketching again.[3] After his release at the end of the war, Wiese returned to Germany but the economy was so bad that he moved to Brazil.[1]
