EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Japan: Tea Picking" takes us back to the early 20th century, offering a glimpse into the rich history and culture of Japan. The image, captured by an anonymous Japanese photographer, showcases tea pickers diligently at work in a lush tea plantation. The monochromatic tones add a timeless quality to the photograph, emphasizing the simplicity and beauty of this traditional practice. The delicate movements of the workers as they carefully pluck tea leaves from the bushes are frozen in time, inviting us to appreciate their expertise and dedication. The significance of tea in Japanese culture cannot be overstated. It is not only a popular beverage but also holds deep cultural symbolism representing harmony, respect, and tranquility. This image serves as a visual testament to these values. Originally published as an illustration for Anna C Hartshorne's book "Japan and her People" this photograph captures an authentic moment in history that continues to resonate with viewers today. Its inclusion in private collections speaks volumes about its artistic merit and historical importance. Bridgeman Images has done justice to this remarkable piece by preserving it for future generations to admire. As we gaze upon this evocative scene from early 20th-century Japan, we are reminded of the enduring power of photography artistry in capturing both fleeting moments and everlasting cultural traditions.
