EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the historic opening of the Japanese Parliament in 1890. The image showcases the grandeur of this momentous occasion, as it captures a scene from inside the parliament building in Tokyo. The focal point of the photograph is an exquisite chandelier hanging from the ceiling, illuminating the ornate interior with its soft glow. Surrounding it are rows upon rows of elegantly dressed men, representing various statesmen and government officials who have gathered for this significant event. The wood engraving technique used to create this print adds a touch of vintage charm, enhancing our sense of nostalgia as we peer into Japan's past. It was originally published in a contemporary English newspaper, providing valuable insight into how news about global events was disseminated during that era. This image not only offers a glimpse into Japan's political history but also serves as a testament to its progress during the Meiji period. The opening of parliament symbolized Japan's transition towards modernization and Western-style governance under Emperor Meiji's reign. As we admire this remarkable piece from Granger Art on Demand, we can't help but feel transported back to that late autumn day in 1890 when these influential figures came together to shape their nation's future within those hallowed parliamentary walls.
