EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "AVQ-A-000050-0013" we are transported back in time to the late 19th century, specifically around 1890. The image showcases a magnificent statue of a Japanese divinity, exuding an aura of mysticism and reverence. Crafted by the skilled hands of the School of Yokohama, this sculpture stands as a testament to their artistic prowess and deep cultural understanding. The intricate details carved into every inch of the statue's form speak volumes about the dedication and craftsmanship involved in its creation. The divinity depicted in this photograph remains anonymous, yet radiates an undeniable sense of power and grace. Adorned with delicate inscriptions that adorn its surface, it becomes evident that writing is not only seen as a means of communication but also as an instrument for divine expression. Resting upon an elegant pedestal, this statue commands attention and invites contemplation. Its presence evokes feelings of awe and wonderment among those fortunate enough to behold it firsthand or through this remarkable photographic reproduction by Alinari. As we gaze at this mesmerizing work from over a century ago, we can't help but marvel at how art has transcended time itself. This image serves as a reminder that sculptures like these are not mere objects; they embody stories passed down through generations – tales woven into stone or clay that connect us to our past while inspiring future generations. Through Alinari's lens, we are granted access to witness history frozen in time – capturing both the beauty inherent within Japanese culture and the incredible talent nurtured within the School of Yokohama.
