The date is Friday 26 March 1868. The place is the Shishinden chamber of the Kyoto palace. The emperor reclines south-facing against a chair placed on the michodai. He is clad in Heian court garb, his eyebrows shaved, his cheeks rouged and his lips painted red and gold. To the emperor's left sits Sanjo Sanetomi; Iwakura Tomomi is outside the canopy to the emperor's left. Both men are first ministers in the new government. Yamashina no miya, head of the Foreign Bureau, stands to the emperor's right. The daimyo and nobles of gijo rank sit in relative proximity to the emperor, according to court rank (Plate 1).KeywordsForeign PowerImperial GovernmentImperial InstitutionElevated SpaceImperial PalaceThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
