Early Japanese Images
Terry BennettThis fascinating Japanese photography book features over 140 images taken between 1853 and 1905 by the most important local and foreign photographers then working in Japan.
Almost one-fourth of the images are hand colored, superb examples of a rich art form long since vanished. The Japan of this book too has disappeared, but author and compiler Terry Bennett has put together a unique portrait of the country at perhaps its most decisive turning point, a nation about to abandon its traditional ways and enter the modern age.
Important features of Early Japanese Images include the following:
- A historical overview of the years 1853-1912
- The story of early Western photographers in Japan
- The story of early Japanese photographers
- Over 100 images reproduced in original sepia tones
- Over 40 images reproduced as originally handcolored
- An invaluable index that identifies the photographers
