    Ueno Saneo and his friends

    Little is know today about Ueno Saneo. The people in the photograph are probably his family, servants, and friends. They all wear Japanese kimono, and the hairstyles of the women indicate the Taisho Period.==Date:1920, Place:Awajishima, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number72‐9‐0]

      Performing girls

      The women seem to be imitating a zangiri-kyogen or comic farce. The young woman in a red kimono is taking a pose with a kitchen knife in her hand. Derived from the Kyogen plays of the Edo Period that depicted everyday troubles of the people, this style was soon to be replaced by the shinpa-geki or new school of drama.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number79‐43‐0]

        A woman is enjoying the cool air. She has her hair in the marumage style that distinguished married women.

            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]

              Girls dressed up gaily

              Five young women stand dressed up in front of the front gate. Two stand and the other three sit on a long chair. The location is outdoors, but it probably is a set in a studio. It may be a commemorative photo of the five.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:Ogawa Kazumasa, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number45‐30‐0]

They are sitting on chairs and wear kimono with black collars and haori coats. On the left, two umbrellas are leaning against the candle stand. Mt. Fuji is painted on the curtain hanging behind, and a European carpet is spread on the floor.

                  Girls practicing traditional songs

                  Two women hold shamisen (three-stringed lutes) while another woman holds a song book. This seems to be a scene from a regular practice session. The hairstyles with kanzashi (hairpins) and the look of the kimono collars suggest that the women are professionals.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number69‐43‐0]

The slightly elderly woman next to her is wearing black lacquer clogs with high supports. Next to her is an apprentice geisha, and the woman on the far right wears a brightly coloured kimono.

                      The approach to Kasuga Shrine and mideums

                      A sessha (sub-shrine), Wakamiya Shrine which is famous for its Onmatsuri festival, is located at southeast of Kasuga Taisha. This photo was taken at the shrine approach from the Nanmon Gate (South Gate) of Kasuga Taisha facing the northerly Wakamiya Shrine with Nanmon Gate in the background. Six standing mikos (shrine maidens) and one kneeling are seen in the approach. The photographer is the same person who took catalogue #4333 and the mikos are also the same.==Date:unknown, Place:Nara, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number87‐42‐0]
