EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the early 1910s, a western man affectionately kisses the cheek of a Japanese woman, affectionately referred to as "Kissy-kiss-kissy a Japanese missy." The tender moment between the couple is captured in profile, with the woman delicately holding a parasol to shield herself from the sun. The man, dressed in western attire, wears a serious expression, while the woman's demure smile hints at the playful nature of their interaction. The woman's traditional Japanese costume, featuring a flowing kimono and intricate obi sash, contrasts starkly with the man's western attire. This juxtaposition of eastern and western influences reflects the complex cultural exchange that was taking place during this period of globalization. The use of a parasol, a common accessory in Japanese culture, further emphasizes the woman's oriental identity. Despite the clear cultural differences between the couple, their connection is evident in the warmth and intimacy of their embrace. The peck on the cheek is a simple gesture, yet it speaks volumes about the universal language of love and affection. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when boundaries between cultures were being blurred and new relationships were being forged. The image is part of the Mary Evans / Grenville Collins Postcard Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, and it serves as a poignant reminder of the rich history of cross-cultural interactions and the enduring power of human connection.
