EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "La fin du paria" takes us on a visual journey through time and space. Created by the French School in the 19th century, it offers a glimpse into an intriguing moment in Japanese history. The engraving depicts a solemn scene of burning cremation, symbolizing the end of an outcast's life. As we delve deeper into this historical narrative, we are transported to ancient Japan, where exploration and discovery were at their peak. Through this artwork, we witness the intersection of cultures as Western influences merge with traditional Asian customs. The image not only captures death but also serves as a reflection on society's treatment of those considered social pariahs.
