EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the enchanting Shinto Temple of Inari in Kyoto, Japan, circa 1904. Under long rows of sacred torii gates, worshippers are seen coming and going, immersed in a spiritual journey. The artist duo Underwood & Underwood beautifully captures the essence of this revered place. Dedicated to Inari, the Shinto god associated with fertility, rice cultivation, foxes, and industry, this temple is adorned with vibrant red torii gates that guide visitors towards its shrine. Fushimi Inari Temple stands as the principal sanctuary dedicated to Inari across Japan. The image showcases women dressed in traditional attire making their way through the gate-lined path leading to worship. Their presence adds a sense of reverence and devotion to this religious site. The monochrome aesthetic enhances the timeless quality of this moment frozen in time. As we gaze upon this photograph from over a century ago, we can't help but feel connected to both history and spirituality. It serves as a reminder of Japan's rich cultural heritage and its deep-rooted traditions that continue to thrive today. Through this remarkable print by Underwood & Underwood from Heritage Images' collection, we are transported into an era where faith intertwines with nature under sacred torii gates – an awe-inspiring sight that continues to captivate hearts even after all these years.
