EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Emperor Meiji of Japan in all his regal glory. Taken around 1878-9 by Baron Raimund von Stillfried, this image showcases the young emperor seated on a throne-like chair, donning an elaborate uniform and holding a sword. The portrait exudes power and authority as Emperor Meiji gazes directly at the camera. Emperor Meiji, born Mutsuhito, reigned from 1867 until his death in 1912. He was the 122nd emperor of Japan and played a pivotal role in modernizing the country during the Meiji Restoration period. Despite being known by his personal name during his lifetime, upon his death he was given the reign name "Meiji" which is how he is referred to posthumously. The photograph highlights not only Emperor Meiji's imperial status but also reflects the formal portraiture style popular during that era. It showcases him as a young man full of potential and determination to lead Japan into a new era of progress. This rare image provides us with a glimpse into Japanese history and serves as a reminder of Emperor Meiji's significant contributions to his nation. Preserved in private collection after its capture by Austrian photographer Baron Raimund von Stillfried, this photograph stands as an enduring testament to one of Japan's most influential rulers.
