EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "AVQ-A-003899-0013" we are transported back in time to the enchanting world of 1890s Japan. The image showcases a mesmerizing Geisha adorned in a vibrant Kimono, gracefully posing under an arbour. The Geisha's presence is both elegant and mysterious, as she embodies the essence of traditional Japanese culture. Her intricate costume reflects the meticulous attention to detail that characterizes Japanese fashion and clothing. Every fold and pattern on her Kimono tells a story, showcasing the rich heritage and artistry behind these garments. As our eyes wander across the photograph, we notice the Geisha holding a delicate fan - an accessory synonymous with gracefulness and femininity in Japanese culture. This instrument serves not only as a practical tool but also as an artistic expression of communication through its subtle movements. This portrait offers us more than just an aesthetic delight; it provides valuable insights into anthropology, ethnography, and folklore surrounding Asiatic populations like those found in Yokohama during this era. It allows us to appreciate their unique customs, traditions, and national identity. The photographer from the School of Yokohama skillfully captures every nuance of this geisha's beauty while preserving her enigmatic aura for generations to come. Through Alinari's masterful printing techniques, we can now admire this historical gem with remarkable clarity. Let this evocative image transport you back in time to experience the allure of old-world Japan – where tradition meets modernity under one arbour – inviting you to explore its fascinating cultural tapestry through one captivating geisha's gaze.
