EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A Street Scene, Kioto" transports us back to the bustling streets of 19th century Japan. Taken by artist Mortimer L Menpes in 1887 and published in his book "Japan - A Record in Colour" this image captures the essence of urban life during that time. In this vibrant scene, we see a crowd of people, both men and women, going about their evening activities. The street is illuminated with soft lights, casting a warm glow on the surroundings. A young boy stands at the forefront, captivated by the spectacle before him. His wide-eyed curiosity reflects the timeless fascination we all have for our surroundings. The women are dressed elegantly in traditional Japanese attire, carrying parasols to shield themselves from both rain and sun. Their colorful kimonos add splashes of color against the brown tones of the cityscape. As we observe this snapshot from history, it becomes clear that despite being taken over a century ago, certain aspects remain universal - human connection and curiosity transcend time and place. This photograph serves as a reminder that even amidst rapid societal changes throughout centuries, there are elements that connect us all. Mortimer L Menpes' skillful composition allows us to step into this moment frozen in time and experience a glimpse into daily life in Kyoto during an era long gone but not forgotten.
