EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step back in time to 1865-1870 with this print captured by the talented Beato Felice. In this mesmerizing image, we are transported to a traditional tea house in Japan, where four young geishas grace us with their presence. Dressed immaculately in vibrant and ornate kimonos, these geishas exude elegance and poise. Three of them are seated gracefully under the sheltered portico, while the fourth stands nearby holding a shyamisen delicately on her left arm. The intricate details of their costumes showcase the rich cultural heritage and meticulous craftsmanship that define Japanese fashion. Every element within this photograph tells a story - from the wooden shoes adorning their feet to their meticulously styled hairdos. These accessories not only complement their attire but also symbolize tradition and status within Japanese society. The tea house itself is an architectural marvel, showcasing exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail. Its structure blends seamlessly with its natural surroundings as lush vegetation peeks through in the background, creating a serene ambiance for these enchanting women. Beato Felice's lens captures more than just a group portrait; it encapsulates an entire era of history and culture. Through this photograph, we gain insight into Japan's contemporary nations' pasts - exploring populations, territories, anthropology, ethnography, folklore - all woven together harmoniously. As you gaze upon this remarkable print by Alinari Studios today, let your imagination wander back to a time when geishas graced tea houses like ethereal beings from another world. Let yourself be captivated by their beauty and immerse yourself in the allure of ancient traditions preserved through artistry and photography
