Japan, Honshu
PHOTOGRAPH ALBUM OF 116 PROFESSIONAL IMAGES MOSTLY FROM MIE-KEN CIRCA 1895-1925 DURING THE MEIJI AND TAISHO PERIODS
1925. Original photograph album. Very Good. Oblong string-tied album of black cardstock leaves 11†x 13†photographs mounted on 35pp blanks at the rear. Bound in black flexible boards with an embossed sailing ship and gilt lettering Photo-Album on the cover. Pasted in are 116 albumen and silver gelatin prints ranging from small candids to 8 ½†x 10 ½†group portraits a few fading overall sharp and clean. Laid into the album are a Japanese news article a small head-shot of an older gentleman and a watercolor portrait 10" x 8 ¼†of a man’s face. Most of the photographs in this album. circa 1895-1925 were taken in Mie-Ken or “Mie prefecture†part of the Kansai region on the main island of Honshu. The group and individual portraits reflect new social and economic developments and cultural norms that emerged during this period. Subjects are shown in either traditional Japanese garments or in Western dress. Group shots often depict people wearing both styles within the same picture. There are many group shots of schoolchildren of both sexes young people in uniforms posed before buildings with Japanese signs on them as well as many formal group shots of families some “nuclearâ€â€”husband wife children— others extended by relatives. Individual shots of young children show them almost invariably in western dress one posed with his tricycle young boys in uniform a young girl in kimono showing a dance move while holding a fan infants in traditional robes and young men in business suits. Several birdseye views feature very large groups of rural people in traditional dress posed outdoors. Among the most striking photographs are: one 8 ½†x 10 ½†showing 11 doctors/ medical students posed around two corpses one smiling happily being dissected on two tables; four women and one man posed around a table doing handwork weaving tatting; men in western dress “strap-holding†inside a streetcar; and 5 actors 2 male 3 female on stage in costume. ~~ The Meiji period 1868-1912 saw the restoration of the Emperor this time with a centralized bureaucracy behind him after years of shogun rule. Japan was under heavy influence from Western political economic and educational models and the country became more capitalist industrial and progressively democratic offering free education to youngsters of both genders. Transportation and communications systems were modernized the feudal lords and samurai lost their power and a powerful national army and navy were created. By the early 1870s the government declared all classes of people to be equal. The Taishu period 1912-26 saw the continued influence of Western culture and values such as efficiency and individualism continued to replace more traditional ones. Japanese participation on the world stage continued to grow as the nation co-founded the League of Nations and emerged on the winning side in WWI. By 1925 there was universal male suffrage in Japan. Corruption in government increased however and the West began to form negative views of this newly-powerful non-white nation exacerbated by Japan’s poor treatment of China. unknown
