EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a meticulously detailed "Map of Japan in Provinces in time of Iyeyasu" from the year 1903. Created by an unknown artist, this map takes us back to the era of Tokugawa Ieyasu, who served as the first shogun of the Tokugawa shogunate from 1600 to 1868, known as the Edo period. During his reign, Ieyasu made a conscious decision to distance Japan from European influence while still allowing trade with the Dutch East India Company. However, in 1614, he signed the Christian Expulsion Edict that prohibited Christianity within Japan. This historical document sheds light on both political and religious aspects of Japanese history during this transformative century. The map itself is a testament to exquisite cartography skills and provides valuable insights into Japan's geographical divisions at that time. It beautifully illustrates various provinces across the country and highlights important landmarks such as Nikko Toshogu Shrine and its proximity to the Pacific Ocean. Preserved through time, this rare piece offers us a glimpse into Japanese history during periods marked by significant changes in governance and foreign relations. With vibrant colors capturing our attention, it serves as an invaluable resource for scholars studying early foreign intercourse between Japan and other nations. The collaboration between James Murdoch, M. A. , and Isoh Yamagata further enhances its historical significance. As we explore this remarkable image created over a century ago in Kobe, Japan - let us appreciate not only its artistic beauty but also its ability to transport us back to an intriguing chapter in Japanese history.
