EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic beauty of The Fujiyama, also known as Mount Fuji or Fuji-san, taken by Tagonoura in Japan. Dating back to the late 19th century (1870-1890), this image showcases not only the iconic volcano but also highlights various elements that make it a true masterpiece. In this photograph, we are transported to a serene landscape where nature intertwines with human creations. Towering trees and lush vegetation frame the scene, emphasizing the harmonious relationship between man and nature. A gracefully arched bridge stands proudly over a naval river, serving as both a means of transportation and an architectural marvel. The presence of snow atop Mount Fuji adds an ethereal touch to this composition while reminding us of its meteorological significance. This natural phenomenon further enhances our appreciation for the diverse elements found within landscapes such as these. A small boat gently glides across the tranquil waters below, showcasing one of many scenes depicting traditional methods of transportation in Japan during that era. This glimpse into history allows us to reflect on how people from different nations and territories have shaped their own unique ways of life. Kusakabe Kimbei's expertise behind the lens is evident in his ability to capture not just a landscape but also snippets of culture and anthropology. Through this photograph, we catch a glimpse into Japanese folklore and ethnography, witnessing firsthand how Asiatic populations have thrived amidst such breathtaking surroundings. As we admire this remarkable piece from Alinari's collection, let us immerse ourselves in its rich historical context while appreciating its artistic value beyond any commercial use.
