EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored print captures a scene from Japan in the late 19th or early 20th century, showcasing two travelers being pulled by a man in a Jinrikisha. The traditional mode of transportation, the Jinrikisha is a light two-wheeled car pushed by human labor.
The image exudes an air of nostalgia and cultural richness, with the travelers dressed in traditional Japanese attire - kimonos and hats - as they embark on their journey. The parasol held up by one of the travelers adds to the charm of the scene, highlighting the attention to detail in this historical photograph.
The labor-intensive nature of transporting passengers in a Jinrikisha is evident through the physical exertion shown on the face of the man pulling it. This snapshot offers a glimpse into daily life during that era, capturing moments of travel and tradition intertwined.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness a slice of Japanese civilization from over a century ago. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come while also celebrating the enduring beauty and allure of ancient customs and practices.
