Adolphe de MeyerJAPAN

In 1900, Baron Adolphe de Meyer traveled to Meiji-era Japan. From the Buddhist temples of Kyoto to the monumental statuary, from the porticoes of Nikko's Shinto shrines to Tokyo's Ueno Park, he captures the beauty of the landscapes as well as the architectural and artistic treasures of the archipelago.
