In parallel and a few months later, she found an unpublished manuscript by an old relative and muse to many intellectuals, Mathilde Ruinart, who lived in Japan at the same time and befriended Beato. Inspired by their work, Ripa embarked on a journey to retrace their footsteps, weaving their historic perspectives with her own unique style of photography. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Giada Ripa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58279244497278,"sku":null,"price":62.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/files\/giada-ripa-the-yokohama-project-cover.heic?v=1792598571","url":"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/en-us\/products\/the-yokohama-project","provider":"Setanta Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
