EDITORS COMMENTS
This color photograph captures the grandeur and opulence of Annam's emperor seated on his magnificent throne of gold. The image, taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, showcases the intricate design and craftsmanship that went into creating this regal seat fit for a ruler. The emperor exudes power and authority as he sits tall, adorned in a resplendent robe befitting his esteemed position. His presence is commanding, symbolizing his role as the supreme leader of Annam. The golden hue enveloping him signifies not only wealth but also divinity, connecting him to heaven itself. Beside him stands his son, who appears to be learning from his father's example. This ritualistic passing down of knowledge and power emphasizes the importance of lineage within this imperial dynasty. The photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era when emperors ruled with absolute authority and were revered as god-like figures. It transports us back to a time when tradition and ceremony played vital roles in maintaining social order. Preserved within a private collection, this rare print serves as both historical documentation and artistic expression. Its inclusion in J. A Hammerton's book "Peoples of All Nations" further solidifies its significance as an important cultural artifact. Through photography's lens, we are granted access to moments frozen in time - glimpses into worlds long gone but forever immortalized through images like these.
