EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, captured by Underwood & Underwood in 1904, transports us to the serene Kitano Tenjin temple in Kyoto, Japan. The image showcases a devout woman engrossed in an ancient ritual believed to cure rheumatism. With utmost reverence, she tenderly strokes a majestic bronze bull statue standing on a sturdy plinth. The Kitano Tenjin temple holds great significance as it is dedicated to Sugawara no Michizane, an esteemed scholar, poet, and politician from the 9th century. Built in 947 AD, this Shinto shrine serves as a place of worship for many seeking solace and healing. Surrounded by lush greenery and towering trees that blend harmoniously with the tranquil atmosphere of the temple grounds, this photograph beautifully captures both nature's serenity and human devotion. The monochrome composition adds depth and timelessness to the scene. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from over a century ago, we are reminded of the power of faith and its ability to bring people together across cultures. This image not only documents religious practices but also offers us a glimpse into Japanese history and traditions. Underwood & Underwood masterfully encapsulated this moment of spiritual connection between humans and their surroundings through their lens. It stands as a testament to their skillful storytelling abilities as photographers capturing moments that transcend time itself.
