EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "AVQ-A-000050-0008" we are transported back in time to the enchanting Kameido quarter of Tokyo around 1890. The image showcases a mesmerizing scene where delicate lamps gracefully hang from a magnificent wisteria arbour, creating an ethereal ambiance that is truly awe-inspiring. The wooden balustrade and pergola structure add a touch of elegance to the composition, blending seamlessly with the surrounding urban architecture. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, it becomes evident that every element has been carefully chosen to create a harmonious blend between nature and man-made structures. The focal point of the photograph is undoubtedly the vibrant wisteria flowers cascading down from above. Their vivid purple hues contrast beautifully against the muted tones of the street lamps and neighborhood buildings, infusing life into this tranquil setting. It's as if Mother Nature herself has painted an exquisite masterpiece for all to admire. While we can't help but be captivated by the sheer beauty captured within this frame, it's important to note that there is more than meets the eye. The inscription on one of the business signs hints at communication and writing instruments being part of daily life during that era. This subtle detail adds depth and intrigue to an already fascinating glimpse into history. This remarkable print was created by none other than School of Yokohama, renowned for their exceptional craftsmanship in applied arts and crafts. Through their lens, they have immortalized not just a moment in time but also encapsulated emotions evoked by witnessing such natural splendor amidst an urban landscape. Let us cherish this extraordinary visual treasure as it serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and nature's boundless wonders – forever reminding us of our connection with our surroundings throughout different periods in history.
