EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Temple kami, au Japon (engraving)" by the European School in the 19th century offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Japan. The image, part of a private collection, showcases an engraving that was originally created for Louis Figuier's renowned book Les Races Humaines. The artwork has been digitally cleaned to enhance its visual appeal while preserving its historical significance. It depicts a temple kami in Japan, highlighting the intricate details of their traditional clothing and distinctive racial features. This ethnological representation sheds light on the diverse human beings inhabiting this fascinating country. Through this engraving, we are invited to explore the nuances and differences among various native Japanese races and their unique dress styles. However, it is important to approach these depictions with sensitivity and awareness of potential stereotypes that may have existed during that era. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let us appreciate how it contributes to our understanding of humanity's vast array of cultures and traditions across Asia. The temple kami serves as a powerful symbol representing not only Japan but also Asian identity as a whole.
