          A woman on the jinrikisha,Kasuga Shrine

          This photo captures a scene with a woman on a rickshaw feeding deer. It is hard to pinpoint the exact location, but it is probably the shrine approach of Kasuga Taisha, as stone lanterns are in the background. The woman is wearing kimono, Japanes-style chignon, and is holding a parasol. The rickshaw man is wearing zori sandals and a hat. This is a stereograph.==Date:1904, Place:Nara, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐21‐0]

            Geisha having a meal

            A senior geisha serves a meal to younger geishas who are sitting in front of the alcove, traditionally the seat reserved for a guest or older people. The subtitle reads The Correct Serving of a Japanese Meal. This is obviously a staged photograph for foreigners. Although they were odd to Japanese people, scenes such as this seem to have appealed to foreigners.==Date:1904, Place:Tokyo, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐70‐0]
