              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 mother,her child and a nurse

                      The half-naked woman on the left seems to be a nursemaid. Foreign visitors to Japan at the end of the Edo Period were surprised to see Japanese women going about half-naked in public. This custom apparently continued into the Meiji Period. This may be a souvenir photograph depicting the custom of Japanese nursing at the time. The two photographs create a three-dimensional image when viewed through a stereoscope.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:Pierre Rossier, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number70‐2‐0]
