EDITORS COMMENTS
The First Parliament in Japan (litho)" is a captivating print that takes us back to a significant moment in Japanese history. Captured by an English School artist in the 19th century, this lithograph showcases the inaugural session of Japan's parliament. The image depicts an opulent interior where politicians, members of royalty, and even Emperor Harou himself gather to shape the future of their nation. The scene exudes both grandeur and solemnity as it unfolds within the burnt imperial household. Every detail has been meticulously engraved, bringing to life the intricate architecture and ornate furnishings that surround these influential figures. From Prince Imperial Mutsu Hilo to other prominent politicians, each person present carries an air of importance. This historic event marked a turning point for Japan as it embraced modernization and political reforms. It symbolizes the country's transition from feudalism towards democracy and highlights its determination to adapt to changing times while preserving its rich cultural heritage. Bridgeman Images' reproduction allows us to appreciate not only the artistic skill behind this lithograph but also provides insight into a pivotal moment in Japanese history. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of how far Japan has come since that day in 1891 when its first parliament convened – a testament to resilience, progress, and unity.
