EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "FVQ-F-155026-0000" takes us back in time to the late 19th century. The image showcases a mesmerizing group of Japanese peasants, offering a glimpse into their lives and traditions during this era. The date of the photo is estimated to be between 1870 and 1880, making it an invaluable historical artifact that allows us to delve into Japan's rich cultural heritage. These hardworking farmers are depicted engaging in their daily tasks, emphasizing the importance of work and vocation in their lives. Dressed in traditional costumes, these men exude masculinity as they proudly wear hats and headdresses that reflect their civilian status. Their clothing serves not only as protection from the elements but also as a symbol of their identity within society. The Yokohama School (attributed) has beautifully captured this moment with great attention to detail. Every straw on the ground seems meticulously placed, adding depth to the overall composition. This photograph belongs to the realm of applied arts and crafts, showcasing how photography can be both artistic expression and historical documentation. As we observe this portrait-like image closely, we cannot help but feel connected with these individuals who represent a specific period in Japanese history. They embody not just farming or country life but also serve as representatives of Japanese ethnicity and nationality. Alinari presents this remarkable piece without mentioning any commercial use; instead, it invites us on a journey through time where we can appreciate anthropology, ethnography, folklore while immersing ourselves in another culture's way of life through one powerful snapshot.
