Terry Bennett's "Photography in Japan 1853-1912" is a groundbreaking work that unveils the hidden histories of photography in Japan during a pivotal era of cultural transformation. Through meticulous research and stunning visuals, Bennett takes us on a journey from the arrival of the first daguerreotypes in 1853 to the dawn of the 20th century, when Japanese photographers were pushing the boundaries of the medium both at home and abroad.
This richly illustrated volume offers a comprehensive overview of Japanese photography during this period, showcasing the work of renowned photographers such as Felice Beato, Baron Raimund von Stillfried, and Ogawa Kazumasa, as well as lesser-known figures whose contributions have been largely overlooked.
Bennett's analysis explores the complex interplay between Japanese tradition and Western influence that shaped the development of photography in Japan. He examines the role of photography in documenting the country's rapid modernization, its use as a tool for social and political commentary, and its influence on the development of Japanese aesthetics.
"Photography in Japan 1853-1912" is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of photography, Japanese art, or the cultural history of Japan. It is a beautifully crafted and thought-provoking work that sheds new light on a fascinating and underappreciated chapter in the history of art.
