EDITORS COMMENTS
This triptych of polychrome woodblock prints, created by Yoshikazu in the 2nd month of 1861, offers a mesmerizing glimpse into a procession of foreigners at Yokohama during the Edo period. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring to life this historic moment where East meets West. The scene unfolds with an array of American men, elegantly dressed and riding on horse-drawn carriages along the bustling streets of Yokohama. The horses prance gracefully as they pull their ornate vehicles through the crowd, capturing the attention of both locals and visitors alike. Intriguingly, amidst this lively parade stands a military band composed of Western soldiers playing their instruments with great enthusiasm. Their presence adds an air of excitement and curiosity to the already vibrant atmosphere. Yoshikazu's artistic skill is evident in his ability to capture not only the physical attributes but also the essence and spirit behind each figure portrayed in this masterpiece. From every brushstroke emerges a sense of cultural exchange between Japan and America during this pivotal time in history. As we gaze upon this remarkable print at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, we are transported back to that era when two worlds collided harmoniously on these very streets. It serves as a testament to our shared heritage and reminds us how art can bridge gaps between nations while preserving our collective past for generations to come.
