EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Viscount Kentaro Kaneko, a prominent figure in early 20th-century Japan. Taken around 1900 by the talented artist Julian Leonard Street, this portrait captures the essence of a man who was not only an influential politician but also deeply rooted in Japanese tradition. Viscount Kentaro Kaneko's impressive resume includes attending Harvard University in 1878 and serving as Privy Councilor to the Emperor of Japan. He was also President of the America-Japan Society of Tokyo, highlighting his commitment to fostering international relations. In this image, Viscount Kentaro Kaneko stands confidently amidst a serene garden backdrop. Dressed in traditional Japanese attire, he exudes elegance and poise. The intricate details of his costume reflect both his status as a diplomat and his deep connection to his country's rich cultural heritage. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this photograph, transporting viewers back to the early decades of the 20th century. It serves as a testament to Julian Street's skillful artistry and ability to capture not just physical likeness but also the subject's inner character. This remarkable print is part of "Mysterious Japan" an acclaimed book authored by Julian Street and published by Doubleday, Page & Company in New York & Toronto in 1921. As we admire this snapshot from history, it offers us glimpses into Viscount Kentaro Kaneko's life as well as providing valuable insight into Japan during that era.
