EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Japan circa 1912, where we are presented with a magnificent sight - the Big Torii at Suwa Shrine in Nagasaki. The image was captured by an anonymous Japanese photographer of the 20th century and is now part of a private collection. The Big Torii stands tall and proud, commanding attention with its grandeur. It serves as a gateway to the sacred Suwa Shrine, inviting visitors to enter into a realm steeped in history and spirituality. This particular photograph was featured as an illustration for "Selected Pictures of Mikados Empire" serving as a fine souvenir for those who wished to remember their visit to Japan. What makes this print even more remarkable is that it has been meticulously hand-colored, adding depth and vibrancy to the already stunning scene. The colors bring life to every detail - from the lush greenery surrounding the torii gate to its intricate architectural features. As we gaze upon this snapshot from over a century ago, we are transported not only geographically but also through time. We catch glimpses of early 20th-century Japan, its rich cultural heritage shining through each brushstroke on this beautifully preserved piece. With its historical significance and artistic charm, this print offers us a window into Japan's past – reminding us of the enduring beauty found within Asian culture throughout centuries gone by.
