Text on the archival label attached to the back of the print: Crossing in the Ginza district. Tokyo, Japan. 1996. “Since my first trip to Tokyo in 1996, I have always been fascinated by Japan; it’s so different from China or Korea. The attitude of the people is distinctive. You have an incredible sense of security: school children take the metro by themselves; you have the feeling you could leave your camera in a restaurant or a phone booth and would still find it there when you came back a few days later. There is also such a sense of discipline, like at this crossing where everybody waits patiently for the light to change before moving forward. Something else about Japan: nobody looks at you. It’s paradise for a photographer, but after a while you wonder if you still exist.” — Harry Gruyaert Please note: The first photo is the image Magnum used during their sale, the second and third photos are of the actual print. Some reflections may be visible on the actual product images, colors may not be completely accurate in comparison to the actual prints. Please take a look at my other listings.
