EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from 19th century Japan, showcasing the iconic rickshaw - a popular mode of transportation during that era. Created by artist Charles Gillot as part of his booklet "Japon, Moeurs et Usages" this illustration provides a glimpse into the vibrant culture and customs of Japan at the time. In this image, we see a beautifully colored rickshaw adorned with an elegant parasol, transporting a female passenger dressed in traditional kimono attire. The rickshaw driver, a male figure wearing distinctive clothing and hat, skillfully navigates through the picturesque landscape dominated by majestic mountains. Among them stands Mount Fuji, its grandeur serving as both backdrop and symbol of Japan's natural beauty. The print not only showcases the importance of transportation in Japanese society but also highlights the diverse occupations available to men and women during that period. The rickshaw driver's role was crucial in providing efficient transport for people across various locations within the country. With its vivid colors and attention to detail, Gillot's artwork transports us back to 19th century Japan while simultaneously celebrating its unique geography and cultural heritage. This print serves as a testament to Charles Gillot's talent as an artist and his dedication to capturing moments that reflect both historical significance and aesthetic appeal.
