写真家・師岡宏次(1914-1991)が撮った東京や銀座をテーマにした写真集。山の手、銀座、浅草、隅田川などの四季の情趣をとらえ、戦争、そして復興への道を歩む東京の表情を追った256枚の写真。彼の代表的な作品集『想い出の銀座(1973)』、『
東京モダン(1981)』、『
銀座残像(1982)』などと合わせて見るのも面白い。写真に付される詳細な解説も、当時を生きていた作家本人の記憶に従っているため非常に資料性が高い。失われたものは写せない、写真集として残す意味はここにある。
This is a photo collection by photographer Koji Morooka (1914-1991) focusing on Tokyo and Ginza. It features 256 photographs capturing the seasonal beauty of areas like Yamanote, Ginza, Asakusa, and the Sumida River, and documenting Tokyo's journey through war and its subsequent recovery. It's also interesting to view this collection alongside his other representative works, such as "Ginza 1930-1973 (1973)," "
Tokyo Modern (1981)," and "
Remembrance of Ginza (1982)." The detailed captions accompanying the photographs are based on the memories of the artist himself, who lived through that time, making them highly valuable as historical documents. What is lost cannot be photographed; this is the significance of preserving it as a photobook.
