The Age of Travel

Collection

Pephistory of Art Vol. II - From Ukiyo-e to Manga: A Pepe Monogatari

Description

Set against the grandeur of an early modern railway station, The Age of Travel portrays a moment of quiet anticipation as passengers gather before the arrival of a steam locomotive bound for Tokyo. The palette of sepia-toned nostalgia recalls the refined aesthetics of early Shōwa travel posters, where modernity and aspiration converged. Pepe, dressed in period-appropriate attire, stands among travelers whose coats, hats, and suitcases speak to a time when mobility symbolized both progress and personal reinvention. The elevated arches in the background evoke Japan’s rapidly expanding railway infrastructure, while the plume of steam blurs the boundary between the old world and the promise of the new. Here, travel becomes not merely transit, but a cultural mood, an emblem of an era defined by movement, optimism, and the romance of departure.
