EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a piece of history from 1881, showcasing the Y. Yeddo Letter: Tokyo City, formerly known as Yedo. The image is part of an alphabet primer for small geographers, beautifully illustrated in a children's bookshop setting by Guerin-Muller et Cie Editeurs in Paris.
The chromolithography technique used to create this print brings out vibrant colors and intricate details, making it a true work of art. The dimensions of 27x23.5cm allow for a closer look at the bustling street scene depicted in the illustration.
As we gaze upon this historical gem, we are transported back to 19th century Japan, where the city of Tokyo was still known as Yedo. The Asian influence is evident in every aspect of the design, from the architecture to the clothing worn by the figures portrayed.
This print serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of technology and education since the late nineteenth century. It is not just a visual delight but also a valuable educational tool that can be appreciated by all ages.
