EDITORS COMMENTS
Summer Afternoon, c1887, (1901) captures the essence of a vibrant urban scene in 19th century Japan. In this print by Mortimer L Menpes, we are transported to a bustling street filled with people enjoying the warm summer weather. The artist's keen eye for detail is evident as he skillfully depicts the architectural beauty of Japanese shop fronts and the colorful attire worn by passersby. Amidst the hustle and bustle, a lone male figure sits comfortably under the shade of an awning, taking respite from his shopping endeavors. His red clothing stands out against the backdrop of muted colors, adding a touch of vibrancy to this snapshot in time. Menpes' work not only showcases his artistic talent but also serves as a historical record of Japan during that period. Published in 'Japan - A Record in Colour, ' this print offers us a glimpse into daily life at the turn of the 20th century. As we admire this piece today, it reminds us of how much has changed over time while also highlighting elements that remain timeless – such as architecture and human interaction. Let Summer Afternoon transport you back to an era where simplicity met complexity on every corner.
