EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the elegant and regal presence of Her Imperial Japanese Majesty, the Empress of Japan, Haruko. The engraving, created by the American School in the 19th century, captures her beauty and grace with remarkable detail. Haruko, formerly known as Ichijo Haruko before her marriage to Emperor Meiji, was a prominent figure in Japanese history. This illustration was featured in William Elliot Griffis' book "The Mikados Empire" published by Harper in 1877. Dressed in traditional attire adorned with intricate patterns and delicate fabrics, Empress Haruko exudes an air of sophistication and authority. Her serene expression reflects her role as a symbol of power and dignity within the imperial family. The image transports us back to Tokyo (then called Tokio) in 1874 when Japan was undergoing significant transformations during the Meiji era. It serves as a testament to both historical significance and artistic craftsmanship. Preserved within a private collection, this print offers us a glimpse into Japan's rich cultural heritage. It reminds us of the enduring legacy left behind by Empress Haruko - an influential figure who played an integral part in shaping Japan's modern identity. As we admire this enchanting engraving from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of how art can capture not only physical appearances but also convey stories that transcend time.
