EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "AVQ-A-004363-0024" takes us back in time to the year 1866. The image is part of the renowned "J. D" album by Le Bas and showcases a mesmerizing view of Simonosaki's seashore. The photograph captures an exquisite blend of natural beauty and architectural marvels. In the foreground, we see a traditional Japanese pagoda standing tall against the backdrop of the vast sea. Its elegant structure exudes a sense of tranquility and spirituality, reminding us of its non-Christian religious significance. As our gaze extends beyond the pagoda, we are greeted with an awe-inspiring seascape that stretches as far as the eye can see. The waves gently caress the shore while creating a symphony with their rhythmic movements. In this picturesque landscape, we also catch glimpses of houses dotting the coastline, adding human elements to nature's grandeur. These dwellings seem harmoniously integrated into their surroundings, blending seamlessly with both land and sea. Le Bas masterfully captures not only this breathtaking scenery but also offers us a glimpse into life in Simonosaki during that era. Through his lens, we witness how architecture coexists with nature in perfect harmony—a testament to mankind's ability to create structures that complement rather than dominate their environment. This print from Alinari serves as a visual time capsule transporting us back over 150 years ago—an invitation to immerse ourselves in history while appreciating both man-made wonders and Mother Nature's boundless beauty along Japan's serene seashore at Simonosaki.
