EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the regal presence of the Emperor of Annam, Vietnam, seated on his Throne of Gold during the 1920s. The Emperor, as the Son of Heaven, dons his ritual robes, adorned with intricate designs and vibrant colors, including red, green, and gold. He holds in his hands the sacred rule, a tablet of wood, symbolizing his authority and leadership. The image transports us back in time to the Eastern world of the 1920s, a period of cultural richness and racial diversity. The Emperor's throne, surrounded by books and scrolls, signifies wisdom and knowledge, reflecting the importance of education in the Eastern culture. The use of bright and bold colors, particularly the golden throne, adds an air of grandeur and opulence to the scene. The Emperor's serious expression and the solemn atmosphere of the room emphasize the weight of responsibility that comes with ruling a kingdom. This photograph offers a glimpse into the world of the past, allowing us to appreciate the unique traditions and customs of different cultures. It serves as a reminder of the diverse and fascinating history that shapes our world today.
