[JAPAN - STUDIO PHOTO ALBUM] TAMAMURA, KOZABUROBiblio.com

Japanese Photograph Album of the Late Meiji Period.

1890215089Japan. Circa 1890s. 50 hand-tinted albumen prints 30 captioned with studio stock references mounted on thick gilt-edged card leaves19.5 x 25 cms in an album 27.5 x 35 cms; elaborately lacquered boards scuffed and chipped inlaid with mother of pearl with loss over quarter calf renewed bevelled edges gilt dentelles endpapers gilt-flecked some fading and spotting to the images and toning to the margins of the card leaves but a very good handsomely bound collection. Beautiful studio album containing a collection of 50 hand coloured photos of Japan with a splendid lacquered and decorated cover. The photos were commercially produced images which were sold to foreign visitors who had the studio place photographs in an album of their choice. This album is unusually interesting because unlike many where photographs were more randomly placed the images have been selected and arranged geographically beginning in Tokyo and moving southwards: Nikko Yokohama Miyanoshita & Hakone Lake Mount Fuji Kyoto Osaka Kobe and Nagasaki. There are fine images and portraits of geisha including an uncaptioned image of geisha seated possibly by the Kamo River in Kyoto entertaining a male guest. A lute is placed on the rice mat together with a tray of beer. One of the geisha is looking straight to camera a striking composition. Another uncaptioned in the Kyoto group is likely to be in Arashiyama shows a sandalled figure on a mountain path overlooking the leisure boating below. There are also images of pagoda fishing rice planting street vendors and markets. More than half the photographs appear to be from the studio of the Yokohama based photographer Tamamura Kozaburo c.1856-192 who at his height was described as "the best photographer in Yokohama". As Terry Bennett has attested Tamamura's business strategy of selling souvenir albums of views and costumes to foreigners became a "winning formula". see Terry Bennett "Early Japanese Images" Tuttle 1996 and "Photography in Japan 1853-1912" Tuttle 2006 When referring to this item please quote stockid 215089 . hardcover

[KYOTO - LATE MEIJI STUDIO PHOTOGRAPHS]Biblio.com

Collection including three large ensemble photographs of women from a well-known studio.

1900214646Kyoto. Late Meiji 1900. Nine mounted studio photographs the images with some fading and spotting but overall in good condition the mounts worn and toned a few with occasional spotting: Three large ensemble groups of women 21 x 26.5 cms mounted on embossed card two with the Kyoto studio stamps of Kiyokuan and the other Kobayashi; One young cadets 21.8 x 27.1 cms with a glassine wrapper annotated with the names of the students; One older cadets 21.7 x 27.1 cms the mount with a stamped border; Two wedding couple and larger family group 19.3 x 13.4 cms and 21 x 26.4 cms in covered window mounts with the stamps of R. Kohno studio Kyoto each with manuscript annotations to the verso of the cover; One formal family group 14.1 x 20.2 cms in a covered window mount stamped Central Studio Nagoya the front cover loose and worn manuscript annotations on the verso; One 15.5 x 21.2 cms casual family group the mount with a greek key and foliated border worn and the image faded. Five blank patient registration forms on fine paper in very good condition. A collection of early 20th century photographs from a well-educated Japanese middle-class family. It is likely that they belonged to the family of a doctor named Tanaka Fusa who had a clinic in Nishio town in the Hazu district of Aichi Prefecture. The photos are accompanied by mid-20th century patient registration forms from Dr. Tanaka's clinic. Three of the photos show large group of women approximately 200 in total and were produced by the Kiyokuan Studio in Kyoto a studio established by Kobayashi Teisuke in 1900. They were most likely female high school students on their school excursion to Kyoto each adopting the same hair style Hisashigami style which was very fashionable among high school girls towards the end of the 19th century. Another family group photo bears the mark of well-known Meiji era Kyoto photographer Hori Masumi 1857-1911. Two later photos are of the wedding in the grounds of Kyoto's Heian Jingu of Ueki Ukichi and his bride Ujiko in May 1929. A Ueda Ukichi is listed as a law student at Kansai University in the early 1920s so this may be the same person. There is an early twentieth century photo of a group of schoolboys each carefully named on the covering tissue and a 1929 photo from a Nagoya studio of a group of dignitaries also individually named on the covering sheet.

Cafe turc Albumen photograph

1890307318Constantinople Istanbul: Probably Sébah and Joaillier 1890. Perhaps the most well-known image from the photographer Pascal Sébah or his son Jean a view outside a Turkish coffee shop of a group of men drinking coffee and smoking. At the center of the image is a seated man with a white beard holding a cup in one hand and the hose of a hookah in the other. A waiter holds a glass-bottomed hookah for him. More men sit on either side of the central figure. However it is a man on the far right of the image staring fiercely at the camera a pipe in his mouth that adds drama to the scene returning the gaze of the viewer. This man and the waiter who are in front of the main row of men also add a nice compositional element dividing the foreground from the background a second image taken on the same day—based on the foliage and the shape of the knot of rope on the cafe wall—lacks these two elements and it is much less successful from an artistic perspective. Adding further interest to the careful view are the ghostly faces of two men inside the cafe who look at the scene through dusty windows. This photograph both documents a part of everyday life for men in Turkey but the subjects return the naked stare of the camera and look across space and time at the viewer of the photograph. It's an image whose meaning is as much about looking as seeing. While this image is titled in the negative it is not signed by the photographer. However other prints of this image are signed Sébah and Joaillier. The placement of that signature not present on this print over the left foot of the staring man suggests this is an earlier printing of the photograph. The quality of the print argues against this being printed from a copy negative. Those facts could argue that this could be an image by the founder of the firm the Turk Pascal Sébah 1823–1886. However Pascal is primarily known for his studio work. His son Jean took over the business and added Polycarpe Joallier as a partner soon after. They are much better known for outdoor street views hence the attribution to Sébah and Joaillier. An image with excellent tonality measuring 10-1/4 by 8-1/8 inches on a 14 by 11-7/8 mount. There is a bit of staining to the lower corners of the mount and the mount is slightly concave but overall this is an exceptional print of one of finest images from the best-known Turkish photography studio of its time.

Photograph Bürgermusik Herisau Fastnacht 1896

189620057Herisau Switzerland: Edwin Jucker 1896. Matted. A kooky Gay Nineties band of cross-dressers a la Suisse! Four of the eight member band are in comical drag in this large sepia-toned photograph taken place during Carnival when outrageous costumes partying and carousing are as much a tradition in the Teutonic world as they are in the Latin countries. The photo itself as visible in the window surrounded by matting is 17 by 22 cm. The photo is taped to the back of the matting and when we look behind the photo is on a thick card measuring about 18 by 23.5 cm. We haven't examined the photo removed from the matting but we would assume that there is a narrow margin and virtually all of the photo is visible. The matting included the dimensions are 27.5 by 35 cm. The band seems to be a more or less typical Tyrolean ensemble with a violin a double bass a trumpet a flute a clarinet we assume -- part of the instrument is hidden so we aren't 100 percent certain a bass drum and a trombone. The center figure in the photo is a man dressed like Uncle Sam with a top hat a long goatee etc. We think this was probably intentional -- the consciousness of America and American culture has become a thing in a Europe with the explosive growth of the American economy and the lure of emigration beckoning to so many at the time. Three of the cross-dressers are zaftig and they are dressed in fittingly matronly attire while the fourth mostly hidden behind his drum seems as if he might be a little more svelte and his attire looks more like that of a suffragette say. The men dressed as men are also in comical costume as well at least three of them. The thinner man holding a trumpet is in clothes that might be Tyrolean or might be from an earlier decade -- we can't tell from the photo that blurs his suit into just a dark undifferentiated shape. We also think it is possible but unlikely that one or more of the band members dressed as men might be a cross-dressing woman but we have no confidence that this is the case and it is probably unknowable. A close look at the faces of the band members suggests to us also that a few of them are closely related and probably siblings. Again probably unknowable for all intents and purposes. The backdrop of the photo is a paneled wall with four travel posters of Swiss resorts -- Rigi Lake Maggiore Ragaz-Wartenstein. We would think this was a photo studio backdrop. Again just a guess. Written on the photo is "Wartsaal III - Classe". This suggests that the band was participating in a contest. Herisau is in the Appenzell Canton of Switzerland or the Northeast of the country close to St. Gallen. The photo is foxed not terribly. The matting is also foxed and stained otherwise with three chips two of which are at corners. Although the matting might seem a candidate for replacement though we wouldn't since it is clearly original to the photo with its black impressed caption above and issued with the photo itself as a souvenir of the band and the event.
