EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Empress Shoken, the esteemed wife of Emperor Meiji of Japan. Taken by a talented Japanese photographer in the 19th century, this image is now part of a private collection. The Empress, born in 1849 and passing away in 1914, was an influential figure during her time. In this postcard-worthy portrait, Empress Shoken exudes grace and elegance as she gazes into the distance. Adorned with exquisite jewelry and wearing a regal dress befitting her imperial status, she radiates sophistication. A crown rests atop her head, symbolizing her role as queen consort to Emperor Meiji. The photograph captures not only the beauty of Empress Shoken but also provides insight into the monarchy's prominence during that era. Her presence signifies power and authority within Japanese society. Empress Shoken's legacy extends beyond being a royal person; she played an essential role in shaping Japan's history alongside Emperor Meiji. This image serves as a reminder of their reign and their significant contributions to their nation.
