EDITORS COMMENTS
The west side of the five-storey Yasaka Pagoda, captured in this 1904 print by Underwood & Underwood, transports us to the serene beauty of Kyoto, Japan. Standing tall and majestic, this pagoda was constructed in 1618 as a significant structure within a Buddhist temple. The monochrome black and white tones lend an air of timelessness to the image, allowing us to appreciate the intricate architectural details that make up this multi-storeyed masterpiece. The artist's skillful use of stereoscopic photography adds depth and dimension to the scene, immersing us further into its splendor. As we gaze upon this print from a series called 'Notes of Travel, ' we are reminded of the rich religious heritage that permeates Japanese culture. The Yasaka Pagoda symbolizes devotion and spirituality for those who practice Buddhism. Intriguingly, amidst its grandeur lies a glimpse into everyday life - people going about their daily routines near this sacred site. This juxtaposition highlights how seamlessly religion intertwines with daily existence in Japan. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a window into centuries-old traditions and beliefs. It invites us to explore Kyoto's enchanting landscapes while contemplating our own spiritual journeys.
