EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "J, Japanese (colour litho)" takes us back to the early 20th century when cultural exploration was at its peak. The image is part of an alphabet book called "The World at Home ABC" by W Gibbons, published around 1903. In this illustration, we see a representation of a Japanese person dressed in traditional attire. The artist from the English School beautifully captures the essence of Japan's rich history and heritage through vibrant colors and intricate details. This artwork serves as a reminder of how different nations were perceived during that era. It reflects the prevailing racial stereotypes and ideas associated with various countries. However, it also provides an opportunity for us to reflect on our progress in challenging these stereotypes and embracing diversity. The inclusion of this piece in a children's book suggests that it aimed to educate young minds about different cultures worldwide. By exploring alphabets through various national costumes, children could develop an appreciation for global diversity from an early age. As we admire this historical gem captured by Bridgeman Images, let us appreciate both its artistic beauty and its significance in shaping our understanding of race, nations, and cultural identities throughout history.
