    Rice planting

    Rice planting

    Farmers are busy planting rice in flooded paddies near Kyoto. They are barefoot and wearing short kimonos because of the water. The women have their heads covered with hand towels, and the men wear straw hats to protect themselves from the sun. The mountains indicate that the location is either Kameoka, Yamashina, or Minami-Yoshiro. This may have been taken by the British photographer H.G. Ponting.==Date:1904, Place:Kyoto, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐23‐0]

              Women rubbing cheeks

              A woman has a child on her lap, and has both hands around the child with cheeks touching. In the picture it is written Japanese girls, but actually it looks more like a mother and daughter. This pose is rather Western. It may be a dramatized photo taken by a Westerner.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:[R. Stillfried], (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number27‐24‐0]

                A family celebrating their child

                The boys are probably brothers with their older sister. They wear haori coats and hakama trousers. The woman holding the younger brother on her knees is probably the mother and the woman on the right her mother-in-law. A woven bamboo basket containing rice cakes or perhaps chimaki dumplings is nearby. This is probably a photograph to commemorate a Meiji Period Shichi-go-san children's day festival, because the padded clothing indicate early winter.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:Usui Shuzaburo, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number94‐2‐0]

                      Tea picking

                      Women are picking tea leaves. They have cloths on their heads and their sleeves pulled up with cords. The kimono and sashes suggest that they are daughters of well-to-do-families working as apprentices. Each woman is picking randomly, and there are no furrows in the field. It is likely not a real setting.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number51‐100‐0]
