EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back to Japan in 1898, where a skilled musician is seen playing the traditional instrument known as the Koto. The Koto is a harp-like instrument that is played horizontally on the floor, requiring immense skill and precision from the player.
As we gaze at this historical image, we can almost hear the enchanting melodies being produced by the musician's nimble fingers. The rich history and cultural significance of this regional instrument are beautifully captured in this snapshot of Japanese music tradition.
However, it is not all glamour and grace when it comes to playing the Koto. As mentioned in the caption, players often suffer from back-ache due to the strenuous position they must maintain while performing. In fact, it was believed that a player would continue to play until they eventually collapsed from exhaustion - a testament to their dedication and passion for their craft.
Through this photo print, we are given a glimpse into both the beauty and challenges of traditional Japanese music. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating cultural heritage through art forms such as these.
