EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Race Jaune, Japonais, Chinois" captures a chromolithograph artwork created by the European School in the 19th century. This intriguing piece is part of a private collection and serves as an illustration for Louis Figuier's book, Les Races Humaines (Hachette, 1872). The image depicts individuals representing the Yellow Race from Japan and China. This thought-provoking artwork explores the concept of racial differences and stereotypes prevalent during that era. The subjects are shown wearing traditional costumes native to their respective countries, highlighting their distinct cultural identities. Through this portrayal, the artist delves into ethnological aspects of human beings within Asia. While it is essential to acknowledge that this artwork reflects historical perspectives on race and ethnicity, it also prompts us to question these notions critically. By examining clothing choices and physical appearances, we can observe how societal perceptions have shaped our understanding of different races throughout history. As viewers engage with this print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, they are invited to reflect on humanity's diverse nature while challenging preconceived notions about race. It serves as a reminder that our shared humanity should be celebrated rather than used as a basis for discrimination or prejudice.
