With the Japan's debut on the international stage in 1854, the image of Japanesefrequently appeared in pictorials, a medium that initially became popular in the 1840s.Through focusing on one of these famous pictorials, Harper's Weekly, we can see howthe image of Japanese changed over time. At the beginning, the Japanese attired in"traditional samurai costume" were considered a primitive race and depicted with darkskin and twisted faces. After the Meiji Restoration, however, modernizing Japan strove toshed the image of the "premodern." Accordingly, editorial comments and the tone of theillustrations of the Japanese also became accepting. These pictures are not simplyevidence of Japan's modernization, but trace its drifting from the periphery to the centerof World history in the 19th century.
