Finishing Touches - A Glimpse into the Exotic World of Early 20th Century Japan
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "Finishing Touches" takes us on a journey to early 20th century Japan. The image, a colour lithograph by Mortimer Ludington Menpes, showcases the artist's keen eye for detail and his ability to capture the essence of Japanese culture. In this picturesque scene, we find ourselves in a traditional Japanese interior adorned with beautiful Asian hangings. A young woman is delicately applying the finishing touches to an exquisite paper portrait that hangs gracefully on the wall. Her focused expression reveals her dedication and skill as she meticulously adds vibrant hues to bring life to the artwork. Menpes' illustration was originally featured in "Japan: A Record in Colour" a book transcribed by Dorothy Menpes and published in 1901. This publication aimed to introduce Western readers to the enchanting beauty and rich cultural heritage of Japan. Through this print, we are transported back in time, immersing ourselves in an era where Asia fascinated Western audiences with its exotic allure. The intricate details captured within this artwork offer us glimpses into both everyday life and artistic practices of early 20th century Japan. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also its historical significance as it serves as a window into another time and place – one filled with tradition, artistry, and endless fascination
