EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Tokio in Winter" takes us back to 19th century Japan, offering a glimpse into the bustling city of Tokyo during the colder months. The print, part of a private collection, was originally featured in the book "Conquests of the Cross: A Record of Missionary Work throughout the World" edited by Edwin Hodder and published around 1890. The scene depicted showcases Christian missionaries braving the winter weather as they navigate through Tokyo's streets. It serves as a reminder of their dedication to spreading Christianity in Asia during that era. The image captures both the religious aspect and cultural significance associated with this period. With intricate details and skilled craftsmanship, this engraving transports viewers to an earlier time when Tokyo was still known as Tokio. It highlights not only the architectural beauty but also emphasizes how religion played a significant role in shaping society at that time. As we admire this historical artwork, it is important to acknowledge its contribution to our understanding of Japanese history and culture. Through images like these, we gain insight into how different religions have influenced societies across continents and continue to shape our world today.
