EDITORS COMMENTS
Empress Shoken, born Princess Teru Kōjō, was the consort of Emperor Meiji and the mother of Emperor Showa in the late 19th century Japan. In this vintage photograph taken during the 1870s, Empress Shoken is depicted in traditional Japanese attire, sitting elegantly on a tatami mat floor, with a serene expression on her face. The intricate details of her kimono, adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors, reflect the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the Meiji Era. The ethnographic significance of this image lies in its ability to capture a moment in time, showcasing the traditional dress and customs of the Japanese Imperial Court. The photograph, an albumen print from the 1880s to 1900s, is a testament to the early days of photography in Japan, a time when the medium was still in its infancy and used primarily for ethnographic and documentary purposes. The image, with its soft focus and warm tones, evokes a sense of nostalgia and wonder, transporting the viewer back to a time when Japan was undergoing rapid modernization and cultural transformation. As a traveller or history enthusiast, this photograph offers a unique insight into the lives of the Japanese Imperial Family during the Meiji Era, a period of great change and innovation. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of vintage photographs or ethnographic materials, and serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage and history of Japan.
