EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Chief Magistrate of Napha, Lew Chew, 1855" offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of Asia. The image portrays an esteemed statesman from the Ryukyu Kingdom (modern-day Okinawa) during the mid-19th century. With his dignified presence and flowing beard, the chief magistrate exudes authority and wisdom. The artist behind this remarkable piece is Eliphalet Brown Jr. , who skillfully captures every intricate detail of the subject's attire and facial features. The lithograph measures 22x16.875 cm and is housed in the Free Library of Philadelphia's Print and Picture Collection. This print originates from Commodore M. C. Perry's renowned narrative documenting his expedition to China Seas and Japan between 1852-1854. It serves as a valuable historical artifact that sheds light on interactions between Western powers and Asian nations during this period. As we delve deeper into this artwork, we notice a handwritten note by Joseph Jackson speculating whether Peter Kramer was involved in its creation alongside Eliphalet Brown Jr. This adds an intriguing layer to our understanding of its origins. Overall, this lithograph provides us with a fascinating glimpse into the life of an influential figure in Lew Chew (now known as Okinawa). Through artistry and attention to detail, it immortalizes not only Chief Magistrate but also highlights cultural exchange during a pivotal time in history.
