The photograph portrays Emperor Mutsuhito as a nobleman of great stature, exuding grace and dignity. His presence is complemented by the distinguished appearance of the Duke of Connaught and his entourage, representing England's imperial power. This visual representation highlights not only the significance of this encounter but also signifies Japan's desire to be recognized on an international stage.
