EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of the Japanese garden at the 1904 World's Fair in St Louis, Missouri. The Louisiana Purchase Exposition was a grand event held to commemorate the centenary of America's acquisition of vast territory from France. Underwood & Underwood, renowned for their stereoscopic photography, skillfully captured this moment in time. In this image, we see women dressed in traditional kimonos strolling through the meticulously designed garden. The pagoda and pavilion stand tall against a backdrop of lush greenery and a tranquil pond reflects their elegant architecture. The intricate details on the roof add an authentic touch to this enchanting scene. The Japanese garden is not only a geographical feature but also a symbol of cultural exchange between Japan and America during that era. It serves as a reminder of how different countries can come together to celebrate history and share their traditions. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported back to a time when people marveled at these exotic landscapes brought from afar. This print allows us to appreciate both the artistry behind it and its historical significance within the context of early 20th-century America.
