A gold cup and a cigarette case

A gold cup and a cigarette case

The chrysanthemum crest, denoted by the fourteen petals together in one layer, belongs to the imperial family. The golden cups are bequeathed by the Imperial Agency of Awards, but the meaning of the cups is unknown. Also, there are various cigarette cases with the chrysanthemum crest, but the story behind this one is unclear.==Date:unknown, Place:Tochigi, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number72‐20‐0]

    Sisters

    Sisters pose in hakama skirts with decorative objects in their hair. Their family crest is visible on the sleeves. The photographer may have paid a house visit on the gala festival day for children of three, five and seven years of age.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number72‐169‐0]

      Soldiers in armour

      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]

        A waiting maid serving tea to the lady

        A maid is offering a cup of tea to a lady in formal attire. The lady is wearing a kimono with her family crest on the left and right sleeves and the back, and her hair is arranged in the shimada style. Maids usually wore short-sleeved kimono, but this woman is wearing a long-sleeved furisode and women's culottes. This may be the result of a mistake by the photographer. The layout of the alcove where a scroll is hanging and the setting of the floor with carpet-like mattresses are also odd.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:R.

          The Tatsumi Three-story Watchtower at Honmaru (main dungeon),Edo Castle

          The Tatsumi Three-story Watchtower at Honmaru (main dungeon),Edo Castle

          The three-story Hasuike Tatsumi watchtower with Tansu Tamon, the longest castle wall-cum-armory at Edo Castle, on the left. This photograph must have been taken before October 7, 1870, when these buildings were probably destroyed as a result of a fire in a explosives warehouse. The low camera angle makes it difficult to tell, but the Hamaguri Moat is located beyond the rickshaws. Uchi Sakurada Gate, standing since the construction of Edo Castle by Ota Dokan, is visible on the far right. The Japanese bellflower crest of the Ota family remained on the gate when the first Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu entered the castle. As a result, the gate is also called Kikyo-mon (Bellflower Gate).==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:R. Stillfried, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number78‐33‐0]
