EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the historical grandeur of Hirado Castle on Firando Island, now known as Hirado Island in Japan. The image showcases the northern gate of this magnificent fortress, along with its yagura (turret or keep) and moat. It's fascinating to note that these are the only remnants left standing after all other structures of Hirado Castle were dismantled in 1871. The architectural style of this Japanese fortification is truly remarkable, reflecting the rich cultural heritage and craftsmanship prevalent during that era. The scene depicted here exudes an air of tranquility amidst lush surroundings, transporting us to a bygone era steeped in history. Originally published in 1843 as part of "Monuments de Tous les Peuples" this archival illustration serves as a valuable testament to Japan's past. Its inclusion within Ken Welsh's collection highlights his dedication to preserving and sharing historical artifacts for future generations. As we gaze upon this old photograph print, we can't help but marvel at the intricate details and sheer beauty captured within its frame. It serves as a reminder of how architecture can transcend time and become an enduring symbol of a country's identity.
