EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a serene moment in the life of Namikawa San, the Kyoto artisan who revolutionized Japanese cloisonne during the Meiji Era. Taken by renowned photographer Herbert Ponting as part of his book "In Lotus-Land Japan" this image offers a fascinating glimpse into traditional Japanese culture. The scene unfolds outside Namikawa San's humble abode, where he stands at the doorway dressed in traditional attire. With gentle grace, he feeds his prized carp swimming gracefully in a tranquil pond nearby. The peacefulness of this snapshot is palpable; it transports us to a time when simplicity reigned supreme. Ponting's lens beautifully captures not only Namikawa San but also the surrounding architectural beauty that characterizes Kyoto. The building exudes elegance with its intricate design and showcases how artistry permeates every aspect of Japanese life. As we observe Namikawa San engrossed in his task, we are reminded of the deep connection between humans and nature that defines Asian cultures. This portrait encapsulates both tradition and innovation—a testament to Namikawa San's artistic prowess and dedication to preserving ancient techniques while embracing modernity. Through this photograph, we are transported back to early 20th-century Japan—a land steeped in rich heritage and timeless beauty.
