EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print taken in the late 19th century, we witness a significant moment of departure. The image showcases the majestic naval ship, H. M. S Audacious, as it bids farewell to Japan and embarks on its homeward journey. The creator of this powerful photograph remains unknown. The scene is filled with emotion and symbolism. A group of men can be seen on deck, waving goodbye to their temporary home in Japan. Their hand gestures convey a sense of gratitude for the experiences they had while visiting this faraway land. As passengers aboard the warship, these individuals represent not only themselves but also their country – Britain. The image captures an era when travel was much slower and more arduous than today's standards. It serves as a reminder of how journeys were once undertaken by sea rather than air transportation.
