EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a Shinto procession carrying sacred objects over a bridge to the Imperial Museum in Kyoto, Japan, in 1904. The image, sourced from The Underwood Travel Library - Japan collection by Underwood & Underwood, London and New York, provides a glimpse into the religious traditions of this ancient country. The scene is set against the backdrop of lush nature with towering trees framing the view. A diverse group of individuals can be seen participating in the procession; women gracefully walk alongside men while children curiously observe their surroundings. Each person carries themselves with reverence as they transport these sacred objects to their destination. The crowded bridge signifies the importance and significance of this event within Japanese culture. Parasols are held high above some participants, providing shade from the sun's rays on this bright day. This aerial view allows us to appreciate not only the grandeur of this moment but also offers insight into early 20th-century life in Kyoto. Through monochrome imagery that evokes nostalgia for times gone by, we are transported back to an era when tradition and spirituality played integral roles in daily life. This stereoscopic card serves as a visual time capsule capturing a blessed moment during a Shinto processional ceremony.
