EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of Kinkaku-ji Monastery in Kyoto, Japan, in 1904. The focal point of the image is a single pine tree that has been meticulously trained into the shape of a boat, showcasing the artistry and dedication of its caretakers. Kinkaku-ji Temple, also known as the Golden Pavilion Temple, holds great historical significance. Originally founded in 1397, it faced destruction twice during the Onin War in the 15th century and was tragically set ablaze by a monk attempting suicide in 1950. However, this resilient place of worship was rebuilt with utmost care and attention to detail just five years later. The monochrome composition adds an air of timelessness to this photograph while drawing attention to every intricate detail. The traditional attire worn by individuals present at Kinkaku-ji reflects their deep-rooted connection to Buddhist traditions and cultural heritage. Surrounded by lush greenery and other architectural wonders within the temple complex, this unique pine tree stands as a testament to nature's ability to be shaped by human hands while maintaining its inherent grace. Through Underwood & Underwood's lens, we are transported back in time to witness not only a remarkable feat of gardening but also experience a moment frozen forever - one that encapsulates both tranquility and resilience amidst changing times.
