EDITORS COMMENTS
This late 19th century photograph showcases a collection of intricately hand-carved family crests, hailing from Asia and primarily Japan. The crests, displayed in a circular arrangement, are a testament to the rich cultural heritage and identity of their respective families. Each crest is meticulously crafted, with complex designs that range from the simple and geometric to the more elaborate and ornate. The crests are predominantly round or octagonal in shape, with some featuring the distinctive Rysa type design. The ivory carvings are further enhanced by the use of staining techniques, such as sumi, which add depth and contrast to the intricate patterns. The crests exhibit a high level of craftsmanship, with each detail carefully executed by skilled artisans. The photograph, taken in a studio setting, offers a close-up view of these exquisite pieces, allowing us to appreciate their beauty and complexity up close. The crests represent a significant aspect of Asian heraldry and were often used as accessories or clothing embellishments, adding a touch of elegance and distinction to family attire. This collection of family crests is now part of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's (LACMA) extensive heritage art holdings. The museum's acquisition of these crests not only adds to its impressive collection of Asian art but also serves as a reminder of the enduring importance of family identity and heritage in various cultures around the world.
