This striking photograph captures a momentous occasion in international relations - the visit of Grand Duke George Mikhailovich of Russia to Japan. The year was 1916, amidst the tumultuous backdrop of World War I. As part of diplomatic efforts between the two nations, Grand Duke Mikhailovich arrived in January 1916 as an envoy for Russo-Japanese Agreement.
The photograph shows Prince Kanin Kotohito, a member of the Japanese Imperial family, riding in a horse-drawn carriage alongside Grand Duke George Mikhailovich. The dignified pair is seen navigating through Japan's streets, symbolizing the strengthening ties between their respective nations.
