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]

The man second from left stands with a flag bearing his family crest and holds a bow and sword.
