EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured print takes us back to the bustling streets of Kiyomizu-Zaka in Kyoto during the 1890s. The image, captured by an anonymous Japanese photographer from the 19th century, showcases a vibrant scene filled with Porcelain Shops that line the historic street. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of East Asia, with its female merchants and oriental ceramic figures adorning each shopfront. These skilled artisans proudly display their wares, showcasing Japan's rich tradition of craftsmanship and attention to detail. As we delve into this snapshot of history, we are transported to a time when commerce thrived in this ancient city. The calligraphy on signboards adds an artistic touch to the already picturesque street scene. It is evident that pottery played a significant role in daily life as locals and visitors alike peruse these shops for unique pieces. Kiyomizu-Zaka's charm is perfectly encapsulated through this lens, offering us a glimpse into its cultural heritage. This photograph serves as a testament to both the skill of the Japanese photographer who expertly captured this moment and Bridgeman Images' dedication to preserving such historical treasures. With every glance at this mesmerizing print, one can't help but appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its ability to transport us back in time.
