EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "AVQ-A-000433-0028" we are transported back in time to the late 19th century. The scene unfolds on a bustling road, where two men can be seen carrying two young women on a rickshaw. This image offers us a glimpse into the rich cultural tapestry of an era long gone. The women, dressed in traditional attire, exude grace and elegance as they sit atop the rickshaw. Their clothing reflects the fashion trends of that period, showcasing intricate patterns and vibrant colors that speak volumes about their heritage. Meanwhile, the men display strength and determination as they navigate through the busy streets with ease. An umbrella serves as both a practical accessory shielding them from the sun's rays and an aesthetic element adding charm to this tableau vivant. The rickshaw itself stands out as a remarkable method of transportation prevalent during those times when land travel was predominant. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also provides valuable insights into Japanese culture and its people. It sheds light on Asiatic populations' way of life while offering glimpses into their anthropology, ethnography, and folklore. Although we may never know who precisely captured this mesmerizing image or what motivated them to do so, it is thanks to unidentified authors like these that we have access to such historical treasures today. As we gaze upon this evocative print from Alinari dating between 1870-1880, let us appreciate its significance beyond commercial use; for it allows us to connect with our past by unraveling stories woven within each frame.
