EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print showcases the iconic trio of Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil, and See No Evil monkeys, carved in exquisite detail from an oak tree outside a Shinto stable in Nikko, Japan. Dating back to circa 1910, this image offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the 1910s. The Three Wise Monkeys, also known as Mizaru, Kikazaru, and Iwazaru, are a popular symbol of Japanese folklore, embodying the proverbial advice to 'hear no evil, speak no evil, see no evil.' Each monkey represents one of the senses, with Mizaru covering his ears, Kikazaru closing his eyes, and Iwazaru plugging his nose. This stunning oak carving, located in Nikko, a city renowned for its beautiful shrines and temples, was captured by an explorer or missionary from the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts (SPG). Founded in 1701, the SPG aimed to spread Christianity throughout the world, and its members traveled extensively, documenting their experiences and discoveries. This photograph print serves as a testament to the enduring allure of Japanese culture and the intrepid spirit of those who sought to explore and understand it over a century ago. The intricate oak carving, with its weathered texture and moss-covered surface, stands as a reminder of the beauty and wisdom that can be found in the most unexpected places, even as the passage of time continues to shape both the physical world and our collective human experience.
