Totally isolated for the next 250 years, Japan became, for Westeners, a lost civilization; a remote island kingdom shrouded in mist and legend evoking whispered images of another time. In 1853, Japan let down the barriers. The world finally could see what it had only imagined. Among the early arrivals were three little known artists: photographers Felice Beato and Baron Raimund von Stillfried, and the novelist Pierre Loti. Their work caused an immediate sensation throughout Europe, giving birth to the Western fascination and obsession with Japan. is easy to see why. In the photographs of Beato and Stillfried, a legend comes to life. Whether the subjects are fishmongers or princes, grocers or samurai, everything is strange, mysterious, alluring. The simple, direct photography overlaid with stylized, exquisitely subtle hand coloring imparts an aura of enchantment to everything. Myth and reality become one. Pierre Loti adds a bittersweet poignancy to the photographs. By the time Loti arrived in Japan, the old world was rapidly disappearing. One gets the sense in his writing of someone desperately holding on to a lovely dream as it slowly fades from memory. That dream lives again in this superbly produced book (originally published in France). The vivid images of this strange and wonderful civilization dazzle the eyes and seize the imagination. These are photo- graphs from another time. And another world. Artikel-Nr. 1653B
