EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by the renowned Italian-British photographer Felice or Felix Beato (1832-1899) during the 1860s in Japan, captures a moment of tranquility and tradition. The image portrays a group of samurai, the military nobility of Japan during the Tokugawa shogunate and Meiji eras, seated around a tea table in a serene tea house. The samurai, dressed in their distinctive attire, wear long kimonos with wide obi sashes, swords at their sides, and their faces show a mix of concentration and relaxation. The scene is set against the backdrop of the Japanese tea ceremony, an ancient ritual that embodies the harmony and elegance of Japanese culture. The tea house servant, dressed in a traditional Japanese outfit, attends to the samurai's needs, pouring tea from a delicate porcelain teapot into their bowls. The servant's expression is one of quiet attentiveness, reflecting the importance of hospitality and respect in Japanese society. Beato, who was known for his pioneering work in the use of the wet collodion process and albumen prints, expertly captures the intricate details of the samurai's clothing and the subtle nuances of the tea house setting. This photograph is a testament to the rich history and cultural traditions of Japan during the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the lives of these noble warriors and the world they inhabited.
