EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Japan in 1895, showcasing a traditional mode of transportation - the rickshaw. The image captures a female passenger elegantly seated in the rickshaw, dressed in a beautiful kimono that represents Japanese culture and tradition. The rickshaw driver, also clad in traditional attire, skillfully navigates through the streets of Japan as he transports his passenger. This occupation was common during the 19th century and played an essential role in providing convenient travel for people across the country. The print is part of "The Universal Geography with Illustrations and Maps" a publication written by Elisee Reclus and published by Virtue & Co. Limited in London. It serves as a valuable historical document, offering insights into life during this era. As we admire this monochrome engraving, we are transported to another time and place - immersing ourselves in the rich history of Japan's transportation system while appreciating its cultural significance. The attention to detail captured by A Sirouy allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of traditional dress but also highlights how it shaped various professions within society. This remarkable piece from Heritage Images reminds us of how far we have come since then while honoring those who paved the way for modern forms of transportations that exist today.
