EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous occasion in Japan's history - the first birthday of HIH Princess Shigeko Terunomiya, the beloved only child of TIM the Emperor and Empress. Taken on 24th January 1927, this image transports us back to a time between the wars when Japan was undergoing significant social and political changes. In this monochrome portrait, young Shigeko Higashikuni radiates innocence and charm as she sits adorned in traditional Japanese attire. Her delicate features are beautifully captured by the lens, showcasing her undeniable connection to royalty. As the elder sister to Emperor Hirohito, Shigeko held an important position within Japan's imperial family until her untimely passing in 1961. This photograph not only offers a glimpse into one of Japan's most influential families but also serves as a testament to Europeana photography during the twentieth century. Preserved by TopFoto. co. uk, it stands as a timeless reminder of an era characterized by elegance and grace. As we admire this precious snapshot from history, let us reflect on how photographs have the power to transcend time and bring forth stories that might otherwise be forgotten. The legacy of HIH Princess Shigeko Terunomiya lives on through this remarkable image, reminding us of both her significance within Japanese society and our shared humanity across generations.
