EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a vibrant Shinto ceremony in Japan during the early 20th century. The image showcases Admiral Togo, a revered figure, addressing the spirits of Japanese heroes who lost their lives in the Russo-Japanese War. This solemn occasion is depicted with great detail and color through a lithographic technique. The scene unfolds at a shrine adorned with flags and surrounded by naval personnel, soldiers, and women dressed in traditional attire. Admiral Togo stands tall in his distinguished naval uniform, commanding attention as he delivers his speech. The atmosphere is filled with reverence and devotion as participants engage in worship and pay homage to their fallen comrades. The significance of this ceremony lies not only in its religious context but also in its symbolic representation of sacrifice for one's country. It serves as a poignant reminder of the bravery exhibited by Japanese soldiers during times of conflict. This remarkable artwork was originally created for Le Petit Journal on November 12th, 1905, showcasing the cultural exchange between France and Japan during that period. Its inclusion within this private collection speaks to its historical importance and artistic value. Through this photograph print from Fine Art Finder's Bridgeman Images collection, viewers are transported back to an era where tradition met modernity amidst the backdrop of war-torn Japan.
