EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Lilies, 1897" takes us back to the late 19th century in Japan. The image showcases a stunning arrangement of lilies, meticulously hand-colored using the pioneering technique of collotype by Kazumasa Ogawa. Known for his contributions to early photography and printing, Ogawa's work beautifully captures the essence of nature. The delicate petals of each flower come alive with vibrant colors that bring joy and tranquility to any space they adorn. This piece is a testament to Ogawa's mastery in capturing the intricate details found in nature through his lens. Transporting us to a time when photography was still in its infancy, this print serves as a reminder of how far we have come technologically while appreciating the timeless beauty that remains unchanged. The soft hues and graceful composition evoke a sense of serenity, inviting viewers to pause and appreciate the wonders of our natural world. Displayed at the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, this artwork stands as an important representation of Japanese artistry during the Meiji era. Its presence within their collection signifies its significance not only as a historical artifact but also as an artistic achievement.
