EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a learned Korean who served as an interpreter at the British Legation during the early 20th century. The image, a vibrant colour lithograph by Constance J. D. Coulson, offers a glimpse into the rich history of Korea and its interactions with foreign powers. The distinguished figure in the photograph exudes wisdom and cultural pride, representing not only his own heritage but also the resilience of Asian ethnicity in general. His role as an interpreter highlights the importance of communication and diplomacy between nations during this era. Commissioned for Frank Elias' book "The Far East" published by A&C Black in 1913, this illustration captures a significant moment in time when Korea was undergoing immense political and social changes. Through its detailed depiction, viewers are transported to a world where cultures collide and connections are forged. The lithograph itself is a testament to artistic skill and historical preservation. Its vivid colours bring life to every intricate detail, while its use of lithography adds depth and texture to the overall composition. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, let us appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and its ability to transport us back to an important chapter in our shared global history.
