EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in time during the Shinto festival of worship of the Sun Goddess in Yokohama, Japan, in 1904. The image showcases people traveling to the Daijingu Temple on two-wheeled rickshaws known as jinrikishas. Each person is dressed in traditional Japanese attire, with kimonos flowing gracefully as they make their way up a metaphorical uphill climb. The photo beautifully portrays the occupation of a rickshaw driver, who tirelessly pulls his passengers along the road towards their religious destination. Among them is a woman cradling her baby, highlighting the importance of family and community within this cultural celebration. The scene exudes an air of tranquility as these individuals traverse through Yokohama's streets. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and nostalgia to this snapshot from early 20th-century Japan. As we gaze upon this print by Underwood & Underwood, we are transported back in time to witness not only a religious procession but also a glimpse into daily life during that era. It serves as a reminder of how traditions and customs shape our identities and connect us to our roots. This remarkable photograph offers us insight into both historical events and personal narratives while showcasing the beauty found within everyday moments.
