Japan in the early part of the 20th century was a place of great change and challenge, nowhere more evident than in the arts of the Taisho and early Showa eras from 1912 to 1930s. Western-oriented ideologues championed the avant-garde tastes from Europe and America. In turn, nativists sought an antidote to Western materialism in the values of the Japanese past. The crucial question of the day was: how could one be both Japanese and modern at the same time when modernity was defined as Western?

The birth of fashion photography as the visual representation of glamour, seduction and dreams, took place within the photographer’s studio. The post World War II period saw these photographers venturing out of their studios in search of more realistic alternative locations. More recently, notably in the 1990s with its championing of the grunge style, the fashion photograph became steeped in raw, uncompromising reality, completely inverting its original position.
