EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to Kyoto, Japan in the year 1904. The image showcases a picturesque tea house porch adorned with drooping clusters of wisteria, creating an enchanting scene that is both serene and elegant. A group of women dressed in traditional kimonos can be seen sitting on the porch, enjoying their tea amidst the beauty of nature. The soft lighting from lanterns adds a warm glow to the atmosphere, enhancing the tranquility of this idyllic setting. In the background, a rickshaw stands as a mode of transportation for visitors to this tea house. It serves as a reminder of how people would arrive at such peaceful retreats during that time period. The wisteria plant takes center stage in this composition, its delicate blooms cascading gracefully over the porch. Its vibrant purple hues contrast beautifully against the monochrome backdrop, adding depth and visual interest to the photograph. This stunning print captures not only a specific moment in time but also embodies the essence of Japanese culture and aesthetics. It offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both natural beauty and traditional customs within one frame. Created by Underwood & Underwood, renowned photographers known for their stereoscopic cards capturing scenes from around the world during early 20th century, this print is truly a work of art worth cherishing.
