**Count Terauchi Masatake Addresses Japan's Lower House in 1917**
In this historic photograph print, Count Terauchi Masatake (1852-1919), a renowned Japanese politician and military officer, stands before the members of Japan's Lower House on April 27, 1917. As Prime Minister from September 29, 1916 to October 29, 1918, Terauchi played a crucial role in shaping Japan's national diet during World War I.
The photograph captures the esteemed Count addressing his fellow lawmakers with conviction and authority. His words likely conveyed important updates on Japan's war efforts and economic strategies as the country navigated its complex relationships with international powers. The solemn atmosphere of the Lower House chamber, adorned with traditional Japanese architecture, underscores the gravity of Terauchi's remarks.
This powerful image is a testament to Bain News Service's commitment to documenting pivotal moments in history. Founded by George Grantham Bain and his brother, this pioneering press photography agency captured some of the most significant events of the early 20th century. Today, this photograph print serves as an invaluable window into Japan's past, offering insight into the country's politics and leadership during a transformative period in its development.
