EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Lily, 1896" transports us back to the late 19th century in Japan. The hand-coloured collotype technique used by photographer Ogawa Kazumasa (also known as Ogawa Isshin) showcases his pioneering skills in photomechanical printing. The image features a stunning lily, delicately captured with intricate details and vibrant colors. The flower stands out against a dark background, emphasizing its natural beauty and grace. This piece exemplifies the early days of photography when artists like Kazumasa pushed boundaries and experimented with new techniques. Kazumasa's mastery of colour adds an extra layer of depth to this photograph, enhancing our appreciation for nature's wonders. Each petal seems to come alive through his meticulous hand-colouring process, making it difficult to believe that this is not a painting but rather a photograph. "Lily, 1896" serves as a testament to Kazumasa's contribution to Japanese art history and the evolution of photography during the Meiji era. It captures both the essence of traditional Japanese aesthetics and the innovative spirit that defined this period. Now housed at the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, USA, this timeless piece continues to inspire viewers with its exquisite craftsmanship and timeless appeal.
