EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by the renowned Italian-British photographer Felice or Felix Beato (1832-1899) in the 1860s, depicts a young Japanese woman in the midst of tying her obi sash. The obi is a traditional sash worn around the waist of a kimono, an essential element of Japanese clothing during the Meiji and Tokugawa eras. Beato, known for his extensive work in India, Japan, and China, captured this moment with exquisite detail, showcasing the intricacy of the woman's attire and the delicate art of obi tying. The woman's hair is styled in a simple yet elegant updo, with a few strands left loose to frame her face. Her kimono, adorned with intricate patterns, reveals a hint of her under-kimono, adding an additional layer of complexity to her ensemble. The photograph, taken on an albumen print or collodion process plate, transports us back to a time when Japan was undergoing significant cultural and political transformations. The Imperial Period, marked by the Meiji Restoration, brought about the end of the Shogunate era and the introduction of Western influences. This photograph, therefore, offers a glimpse into the traditional Japanese lifestyle and fashion that was gradually fading away. Felice Beato's mastery of the photographic process and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects make this image a valuable addition to any collection focusing on Asian history, culture, and fashion during the 19th century.
