EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print, titled "Japanese Woman from Simoda, 1855" offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the mid-19th century. The image showcases a seated Japanese woman dressed in traditional attire, her oval-shaped face exuding elegance and grace. Created by Eliphalet Brown Jr. , an accomplished artist known for his attention to detail, this lithograph is part of Commodore M. C. Perry's Narrative of the Expedition of an American Squadron to the China Seas and Japan. It was produced as a chromolithograph by P. S. Duval & Co. , capturing every intricate hue and texture with remarkable precision. The woman's costume reflects the fashion trends prevalent in Simoda (also spelled Shimoda), a coastal town that played a significant role during Perry's expedition. Her clothing highlights traditional Japanese garments adorned with exquisite patterns and delicate embroidery. As we admire this portrait, we are transported back in time to witness not only the beauty but also gain insight into the lives of women in 19th-century Japan. This print serves as a testament to cross-cultural encounters between America and Asia during that era. Preserved within the Free Library of Philadelphia's Print and Picture Collection - Jackson Collection of American Lithographs, this artwork stands as a valuable historical artifact that continues to captivate viewers with its timeless charm.
