	Art & Artifice Japanese photographs of the Meiji Area Japan, oude fotografie DOBSON e.a., Art & Artifice Japanese photographs of the Meiji Area, Boston Museum of Fine Arts, 2004. Softcover, 95 pages. Oblong, 20 x 25 cm. Rijk geïllustreerd. CONTENT: With the influx of Westerners to Japan during the Meiji period (1868-1912) came the rise of the Japanese photo industry. Originally created as souvenirs for foreign travellers, these pictures soon came to act as a pre-packaged guide: Before long, the tourist's first stop in Japan was the photographer's studio, where he ordered the handsomely-made photo album that would help set his itinerary. But more than this, these photographs reveal an astounding virtuosity, not only in composition but also in the technique of colour retouching, which brought these views of daily life, splendid gardens, bustling cityscapes, and theatrical performances to a new level of vividness. Blatantly artificial, these photographs also convey a true and resonant picture of Japanese society at the dawn of the modern age.

Hard cover 23 x 27 cm.[oblong]. 157 pages with around 110 photographs. "Japan Imagined - the faraway country that enchanted the young Ida Trotzig and many of her contemporaries. Beautiful landscapes, quaint houses, lovely geishas, warlike samurais, in short all things different and exotic fed the imagination.Did this image of Japan correspond to the real country, or was it a dreamland? Ida Trotzig had the opportunity to see for herself when she came to Kobe in 1888. During her 30 years in Japan she got to know its culture, and from 1898 she started her work with, and collection for, the Museum of Ethnography in Stockholm.The photos in the collection presented here were taken by Japanese photographers in the decades around 1900. They reflect some aspects of Japanese life at that period - but not the country that then was in the process of rapid modernization and industrialization." € 32.50 Quantity

	JAPAN in early photographs Aimé Hubert Collection Neuchatel museum of Ethnography MAYOR, G. & TANI, A.(eds), JAPAN in early photographs. The Aimé Humbert Collection at the Museum of Ethnography, Neuchâtel, Neuchâtel 2018. Hard cover 29,5 x 22,5 cm. 291 pages with 219 photographs and illustrations. "Photographs taken in Japan between the late Edo and early Meiji periods that found their way overseas played a major role in forming Westerners’ image of Japan. Among these collections, the pictures gathered by the Swiss diplomat Aimé Humbert (1819–1900) in the 1860s were crucial in building lasting representations of the island nation: many of these, mainly collected in 1863/64 during a sojourn in Yokohama and Edo, were used as sources for the well-known and largely distributed engravings of his famous book Le Japon illustré, published in Paris in 1870. Belonging to the collection of the MEN, these beautiful and well-preserved photographs are published here for the first time. Presented by Japanese and Swiss scholars before the narrative backdrop of their acquisition and application by foreigners, they offer a striking view on a lost world." € 57.50 Quantity
