EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating photographic collection by Arnold Genthe, transports us back in time to the early 1900s. This collection, produced in 1908, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan and Korea as seen through the discerning lens of this American photographer. Arnold Genthe, an accomplished artist and photographer, captured these black-and-white images during his travels to the Far East. The collection includes a diverse range of scenes, from bustling city streets teeming with people and children, to serene landscapes featuring temples, gardens, and traditional architecture. The images in this collection offer a unique perspective on life in Japan and Korea at the turn of the 20th century. We see the contrast between the old and the new, with traditional customs and dress coexisting alongside modern influences. Genthe's keen eye for detail and composition result in stunning, timeless images that continue to captivate viewers today. These photographs are an important addition to the Heritage Art collection at the Library of Congress. They provide a valuable historical record of these two countries during a period of significant cultural and social change. The collection includes a variety of formats, including nitrate negatives, and is a testament to the enduring appeal of Genthe's work. The images in "Travel Views of Japan and Korea" offer a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when the world was becoming more interconnected, and the wonders of foreign lands were a source of endless fascination. Genthe's photographs serve as a reminder of the power of art to preserve history and transport us to new and exciting places.
