EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph depicts the enchanting "Garden of the Floating Isle" from the Japan-British Exhibition of 1910, held at White City, London. The exhibition, which took place from May 14 to October 29, 1910, aimed to showcase the cultural and artistic achievements of Japan to the British public. At the heart of the garden lies a tranquil hilltop, upon which stands a magnificent Japanese temple, its red roofs and ornate details contrasting beautifully against the lush greenery. Terraces cascade down the hillside, adorned with intricately designed pathways that lead visitors on a journey of discovery through the garden. The "Garden of the Floating Isle" was a reconstruction of a traditional Japanese garden, meticulously created to provide an authentic experience of Japanese horticulture and design. The garden featured a variety of exotic plants, ponds filled with colorful koi fish, and stunning water features, all designed to evoke the serene beauty of Japan. This photograph is a testament to the incredible attention to detail and craftsmanship that went into creating this breathtaking display. It offers a glimpse into a bygone era, when the wonders of the East captivated the imagination of the Western world. The "Garden of the Floating Isle" remains an enduring symbol of the rich cultural exchange that took place during the Japan-British Exhibition of 1910.
