EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures the essence of Japan's rich cultural heritage, showcasing the oldest existing Buddhist temple in the country. The print, created by English School in the 20th century, offers a glimpse into history and takes us back to a time when this magnificent structure stood tall and proud. The image portrays the Temple of Horyu-ji, an architectural marvel completed in 607 AD under the patronage of Prince Shotoku. Its significance lies not only in its age but also as a symbol of Buddhism's early influence on Japanese society. This sacred site holds immense historical importance and serves as a testament to Japan's deep-rooted spiritual traditions. The artist skillfully captures every intricate detail of this ancient temple, allowing viewers to appreciate its grandeur from afar. The lithograph is part of a private collection and was originally featured in an edition of the Harmsworth History of the World around 1910. As we gaze upon this native picture, we are transported through time to witness firsthand the majesty and serenity that envelops this revered Buddhist sanctuary. It stands as a reminder that amidst modernity, there are still places where tradition thrives and spirituality finds solace. This piece truly encapsulates both Japan's fascinating history and its enduring devotion to Buddhism—a visual treasure that continues to inspire awe for generations to come.
