Meiji, Emperor of Japan and the Imperial Family, 1900

Group portrait of Meiji, Emperor of Japan and the imperial family. Emperor Meiji (1852-1912), or Meiji the Great, was the 122nd Emperor of Japan, reigning from February 3, 1867 until his death on July 30, 1912. He presided over a time of rapid change in the Empire of Japan, as the nation quickly changed from an isolationist feudal state to a capitalist and imperial world power, characterized by the Japanese industrial revolution. At the time of Meiji's birth in 1852, Japan was an isolated, pre-industrial, feudal country dominated by the Tokugawa shogunate and the daimyo, who ruled over the country's more than 250 decentralized domains. By the time of his death in 1912, Japan had undergone a political, social, and industrial revolution at home (Meiji Restoration) and emerged as one of the great powers on the world stage. His personal name, which is not used in any formal or official context, except for his signature, was Mutsuhito. E.R. Dumont, 1904.
