EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph by Georges Ferdinand Bigot offers a glimpse into the political landscape of 19th-century Japan. The print depicts a group of Soshi, men who were paid by politicians to defend causes through physical force, observing the deputies as they exit the Parliament House. The scene is filled with tension and intrigue as these hired defenders closely watch over the lawmakers. Their presence serves as a reminder that politics can sometimes be accompanied by forceful measures to protect or advance certain agendas. Bigot's attention to detail is evident in this engraving, capturing not only the physical features of each character but also their expressions and body language. The artist skillfully portrays the intensity and focus on both sides - the Soshi diligently fulfilling their duty while the deputies navigate through this watchful gaze. This artwork was originally created for publication in The Graphic in April 1893, offering readers an insight into Japanese politics during that time period. It provides us with a historical snapshot of how power dynamics played out within parliamentary settings. As we observe this image from our present-day perspective, it prompts us to reflect on how political systems have evolved over time and how different societies employ various means to safeguard their interests.
