About the Item
Portraits Women and Children in Nagasaki is a lot of four hand-inked Albumen print with aniline applied on a single cardboard.
Very good conditions. Cardboard cm 26 x 34; Print cm 9 x 13.5
Yokohama School print (Yokohama Shashin), realized during the Meiji dinasty (1868-1912). From a collection printed in the Shin-E-Do studio, as evidenced by the ink stamp on some copies. These prints does not show visible stamps on the front. On the lower margin of the prints some hand-written captions in black ink Italian on the cardboard.
In the lot, four portraits of women and children in Nagasaki depicting them in different activities: two photos depict babies, one with his mother and the other with nannies. The last two prints reproduce young girls, one during a greeting and the other while playing in a garden.
This particular typology of prints was born in Yokoama around 1860 by the Italian photographers Felice Beato and Raimund Von Stillfried , who, for the first time, experimented the production of hand-colored albumen by means of aniline colors in Japan. During the Meiji period, the Yokohama school produced prints for foreign customers, who, at the same time, sought both an image linked to an "exotic" aesthetic of uses, customs and landscapes, and a high quality product, the result by the famous Japanese craftsmanship.
These photographs, made with a sublime technique for both printing and coloring, achieved enormous success so that the production, as a typology, remained unchanged for almost forty years, in which some ateliers acquired the reproduction rights of others, thus making very difficult the exact attribution. The extreme documentary value prints concerning the Japanese culture still today hand down us the last true images of the feudal culture which ended during the Meiji dynasty.
