[edit] Summary

Description

Conté portrait of the Emperor Meiji, drawn by Chiossone during his employment by the Imperial Printing Bureau: Chiossone was ordered to covertly sketch the emperor and create the final portrait from those sketches. The completed work was then photographed and distributed under the tacit approval of the Emperor to foreign governments and Japanese schools.[1][2] The realism of the drawing was such that many mistook the portrait for an actual photograph.[1][3]
