EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "MFC-A-004626-0048" transports us back to the late 19th century in Japan. The image showcases a full-length portrait of a Japanese painter, exuding an air of mystery and intrigue. The artist stands confidently before us, his gaze fixed upon the camera lens. Dressed in scanty summer clothes that reveal his intimate connection with nature, he wears a loincloth and a singular vest adorned with wide stitching. His choice of attire reflects both functionality and tradition. Drawing our attention downwards, we notice the short white socks adorning his feet, paired with thong sandals that provide comfort during hot summer days. These footwear choices offer insight into the fashion and clothing trends prevalent during this era. As we explore further details within this photograph, we observe the artist's accessories: glasses perched on his nose and stockings covering his legs. These elements add depth to our understanding of him as an individual while also shedding light on prevailing styles at that time. While maintaining modesty through carefully placed props and poses, Beato Felice masterfully captures the essence of this male nude portrait. Through this artwork, we are transported to Japan's modern history—a glimpse into its diverse population and rich cultural heritage. Alinari's print serves as more than just an object; it is a window into anthropology, ethnography, folklore—providing valuable insights into Japanese society during this period. Let us appreciate not only its historical significance but also its artistic beauty as captured by Beato Felice's lens.
