EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph taken in 1899, three Japanese servants, O Hero San, O Eun San, and O Sok San, are depicted in the veranda room of the Dom Smith residence in Vladivostok, Russia. The women are dressed in traditional Japanese clothing and are engaged in the preparation of tea, a cherished cultural tradition. O Hero San, the elder of the three, is seated on the ground with her back straight and her legs crossed in a graceful posture. She holds a tea kettle in one hand and a wooden ladle in the other, poised to pour the steaming hot tea into the bowls of her companions. O Eun San and O Sok San are kneeling on the floor, their bodies slightly turned towards each other in a sign of respect and attentiveness. They hold their tea bowls with both hands, their faces expressing a sense of calm and serenity. The scene is set against the backdrop of the veranda room, with its ornate wooden columns and intricate patterns, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of both Japan and Russia. The meeting of frontiers is evident in the blending of Eastern and Western influences, as the Japanese servants bring the ancient tea ceremony to the expatriate community in Vladivostok. This photograph, taken by Eleanor Lord Pray, offers a glimpse into the daily life of expatriates in Vladivostok during the late 19th century. It captures the essence of a bygone era, where the exchange of ideas, customs, and traditions shaped the cultural landscape of a far-flung outpost of the Russian Empire. The photograph is a testament to the enduring legacy of the past and the rich tapestry of human history.
