[Yokohama ca. 1879]. An albumen photograph, very clean, card mounted: photo size: 26.3 x 20.8 cm., card size: 40.5 x 30.3 cm., an excellent example, sharp and clear image. * A RARE & OBSCURE, UNRECORDED IMAGE * . *** *** *** . . AN EARLY, UNSIGNED PHOTOGRAPH ATTRIBUTED TO A. FARSARI . . . * Common of the early period, most photographers working in Japan did not sign their images. They did however number and title them in a unique way identifying [to them !] as their work. The major flaw in that logic comes after they sell, trade or otherwise transfer ownership of the negative to other photographers. . *** EXCEPTIONALLY RARE & EARLY IMAGE: This image has not been found listed or cited in the literature below. It appears to be "un-recorded" and so early that its negative may have been damaged or destroyed, therefore very few examples remain. If it were one of the common negatives sold, exchanged or used by other photographers under their name, there would be ample examples found throughout the literature and the graphic record. This example appears to have been taken in the early period, before hand-coloring was a common feature of the genre. It appears to be a weather inspired work, done in an effort to record the rare and unusual snow-fall in Yokohama. This is a truly OBSCURE and RARE image! We believe it to be a true reflection of Farsari's earliest period of personally inspired photographs. There are very few other images of any Yokohama snow-fall. . *** A RARE VIEW OF A SNOW-FALL IN YOKOHAMA: The Image Details: . An excellent early photograph showing Mt. Fuji in the background, a river scene with a Japanese cargo 'junk,' a single well covered rickshaw on the left quay is seen heading away from the camera. Two Japanese men in Kimono are on the quay, one holds an umbrella, the other holds a "Boston Bag" a kind of foreign style small bag with two handles, on the left bank. . * THE CAPTION: In the lower left corner is the caption: "A 83 SNOW SCENERY AT YOKOHAMA." . This caption was a common feature for a larger number of photographs from Japan in this period. This number is not found in any of the Bennett books, and remains elusive with virtually no published or recorded literature about it. See reference books below. . * THE COMPOSITION: The photograph is very nicely composed. A bleak, cold scene along the river with several vessels covered in snow tied up to the right bank. The left quay and cobble-stone walkway has snow build up. . * WHO WAS THE PHOTOGRAPHER: ALDOLFO FARSARI: . ADOLFO FARSARI [1841-1898] was an Italian photographer based in Yokohama, Japan. His studio, the last notable foreign-owned studio in Japan, was one of the country's largest and most prolific commercial photographic firms. Largely due to Farsari's exacting technical standards and his entrepreneurial abilities it had a significant influence on the development of photography in Japan. . Following a brief military career, including service in the American Civil War, he became a successful entrepreneur and commercial photographer. His photographic work was highly regarded, particularly his hand-coloured portraits and landscapes, which he sold mostly to foreign residents and visitors to the country. . Farsari's images were widely distributed, presented or mentioned in books and periodicals, and sometimes recreated by artists in other media; they shaped foreign perceptions of the people and places of Japan and to some degree affected how Japanese saw themselves and their country. . MASS CONFUSION IN TRUE IDENTITY OF MOST JAPANESE IMAGES: . It is also worthy to note that Farsari used several Japanese to hand-color and assist in developing and creating souvenir albums for the western visitor trade. Some of these Japanese eventually opened their own photography studios in Yokohama and in other port cities where foreigners arrived and departed. In the late years Farsari sold and exchanged negative images with some of these Japanese photographers. In the end, a large number of negatives exchanged hands, resulting in a general 'loss' of attribution to the exact photographer to took the original photo. This cause mass confusion in the Japanese photographic history and genre. . A semi-reliable method to determine authorship of a photograph it to have knowledge of photographic souvenir albums, some of which had a sticker place inside a cover with the studio name. Again confusing, but some reflect the artistic style and unique composition habits, thus connecting them to that photographer. It's more of an art than a science. The reference books are loaded with mis-attribution to the dearth of photographic images. . *** FARSARI AND YOKOHAMA SHASHIN: FARSARI & YOKOHAMA PHOTOGRAPHY During the time Farsari was in Yokohama, there were also a good number of other foreign and Japanese photographic studios actively taking photos and creating souvenir photo albums. . To list some: Beato, Stillfried, Tamamura, Kusakabe Kimbei, Ogawa Kazumasa, and Uchida Kuichi were all competitors. Farsari being a perfectionist, makes him perhaps the best of all photographers working in Japan during this period. See the Wikipedia article below for more info. . *** Color photos are posted to our website. . *** CONDITION: . The photograph is very clean, with a sharp and very clear image. There is a minor bit of the usual fading common to photos of this early era. Being a very bleak, cloudy winter day, Mt. Fuji in the background is a bit faint, but clearly outlined with a lot of snow. . The image has been laid-down on a clean board and is solid. The board looks similar to the kind of heavy rag-paper common to the better quality albums of the period, there is not foxing anywhere on the board or image. There is a very mild bit of warping to the board, again common to an item of this age. The verso of the board is clean, without annotation. . *** REFERENCE: . The following are some useful bibliographies to consult for more information on this album and Japanese.

Yokohama [1899], Farsari Co. A sepia tone photograph mounted on a A. Fasari & Co. card, verso penned name: "Kobe Tajima 1899," card: 11.4 x 16.7 cm., photo: 9.8 x 13.9 cm., a bit of minor fading, else a sharp, clear, strong image,flawless. . *** **** *** . . A LATE 19TH CENTURY PORTRAIT OF A JAPANESE MAN . . . PHOTOGRAPHED AT THE FAMOUS ALDOLFO FARSARI STUDIO, . . . YOKOHAMA, JAPAN . . * THE FAMOUS PHOTOGRAPHER: ALDOLFO FARSARI [1841-1898]: . Farsari was an Italian photographer based in Yokohama, Japan. His studio, the last notable foreign-owned in Japan. He was one of the country's largest and most prolific commercial photographic firms. . Largely due to Farsari's exacting technical standards and his entrepreneurial abilities it had a significant influence on the development of photography in Japan. . Following a brief military career, including service in the American Civil War, he became a successful entrepreneur and commercial photographer. His photographic work was highly regarded, particularly his hand-coloured portraits and landscapes, which he sold mostly to foreign residents and visitors to the country. . Farsari's images were widely distributed, presented or mentioned in books and periodicals, and sometimes recreated by artists in other media; they shaped foreign perceptions of the people and places of Japan and to some degree affected how Japanese saw themselves and their country. . *** PORTRAIT OF A JAPANESE MAN IN TRADITIONAL HAORI & KIMONO: . This fine example shows a wealthy Japanese merchant in formal Kimono and Haori with the Tachibana Mon [crest of wild orange] on each breast. He poses in a relaxed manor for the camera. He sports a moustache and very short trim hair in a very masculine look. . The photo is studio mounted on a stiff card reading: "A. Farsari & Co. Yokohama Japan." . The verso is ink penned named: "KOBE TAMIJA." "Tajima" is the surname, Kobe is the given name. The penned name was written by a person with fluent knowledge of the alphabet and most likely written by a foreigner, rather than a Japanese. . *** Color photos are posted to our website. . *** REFERENCES: .
