EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Japan: Gate of Temple, Shiba" takes us back to early 20th century Japan. The image, captured by an anonymous Japanese photographer, showcases the main entrance or gateway of a temple in Tokyo's Shiba district. The gate stands tall and majestic, exuding a sense of tranquility and spirituality. The photograph is part of a private collection and was originally copyrighted in 1902 by Henry T Coates in the USA. It later became an illustration for the book "Japan and her People" by Anna C Hartshorne, published in 1904. This gravure printed image beautifully captures the essence of Japan's rich history. The monochrome effect adds depth to the composition, emphasizing intricate details such as the ornate carvings on the gate and its traditional architectural elements. The contrast between light and shadow enhances the overall aesthetic appeal. As we gaze upon this historic photograph, we are transported to a different time when Asia was still largely unexplored by Westerners. It serves as a reminder of Japan's cultural heritage and invites us to appreciate its beauty from afar. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece of photography art that not only documents history but also celebrates Japanese traditions through visual storytelling.
