In an electrifying moment in 1585, four Japanese youths appeared before Pope Gregory
XIII, summoned to his court from the nascent Christian community in Japan to present
themselves at the capital of their faith. Legendary photographer Hiroshi Sugimoto
follows in the boys footsteps, capturing the architectural wonders of Rome, Florence,
and Venice as the Eastern visitors might have seen them on their grand tour. Sugimoto's
images present each chapel and theatre as a marvel, imposing and dark. He contextualizes
his photographs with Japanese works from the period and the decades that follow. These
panels and objects attest to the impact of Western culture, specifically Jesuit Christianity,
on Momoyama and Edo aesthetics as Japanese artists envisioned scenes of European life.
