Wheat-threshing

Wheat-threshing

Three men are engaged in fusen with a Chinese winnow. Fusen is the process of separating the unhulled wheat from other substances such as chaff using the wind. The man at the right places the wheat in the pail from the opening in the upper part of the Chinese winnow, and the man in the centre turns the fan of the winnow. The man to the left packs the wheat in the straw bag after the process.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number29‐19‐0]

                  The men are wearing armour that seems to be the military attire of the time. The gold circle and design on the torso protector of the man on the right seems to be a family crest. The man second from right is wearing a helmet with a frontal ornament called a tentsuki. The man in the centre holds a baton of command, a tool used to give orders on the battlefield. The man second from left stands with a flag bearing his family crest and holds a bow and sword. This seems to a photograph from an exhibition of battle attire.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number51‐14‐0]
