Picnic of an English Family near Matsuye in Japan - A Glimpse into Cross-Cultural Delights
EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step back in time to the enchanting era of 1901-1902, as captured by the lens of Gurney Barclay and Leonard Buxton. This photo print, AVQ-A-000789-0090, transports us to a picturesque scene where an English family indulges in a delightful picnic amidst the breathtaking hillsides near Matsuye, Japan. The image reveals not only the idyllic landscape but also offers insights into eating habits and diet during this period. The family is seen relishing their daytime feast on a blanket spread out on lush green grass. Their picnic basket overflows with delectable treats - sandwiches, fruits, pastries - showcasing both local Japanese delicacies and traditional British fare. Fashionably dressed for this outdoor affair, each member of the family exudes elegance through their attire. The women don flowing dresses adorned with intricate patterns while sporting fashionable hats that add a touch of sophistication. Meanwhile, the men display sartorial grace with tailored suits complemented by stylish headdresses. This portrait captures more than just fashion; it hints at social status within society. The grand tour undertaken by this English family signifies their privileged position and desire for cultural exploration. In an era marked by societal norms and politics intertwined with trips and tourism, such journeys were reserved for those who could afford them. As we delve deeper into this remarkable photograph from Alinari's collection, we are transported to a moment frozen in time – one that encapsulates not only cross-cultural encounters but also the joyous spirit of familial bonds shared across borders.
