EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Japan, circa 1912. The image showcases the magnificent Shishinden Hall located within the Kyoto Palace, a place of great significance for various ceremonies and events. This grand hall was particularly used for New Year's audiences and other large-scale gatherings. The photograph also holds historical importance as it reminds us that the enthronement of the present emperor took place here in 1868, marking a pivotal moment in Japanese history. It serves as a visual testament to the rich cultural heritage and traditions of Japan during this period. Captured by an anonymous Japanese photographer from the 20th century, this image is now part of a private collection. Its inclusion in "Selected Pictures of Mikados Empire" suggests its role as an illustration or souvenir for visitors to Japan at that time. The hand-colored details add depth and vibrancy to the scene, allowing viewers to appreciate both its architectural beauty and cultural significance. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back over a century ago when Shishinden Hall stood as a symbol of power and tradition in Kyoto.
