A mother and a girl

A mother and a girl

The mother wears her hair in modern hisashi-gami style, while her daughter wears a hat and apron. The costume is evocative of the mid-Meiji Period. This is a studio photograph. The hisashi-gami replaced the traditional nihon-gami and became a typical hairstyle for young women who wore maroon-coloured hakama skirts.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number72‐190‐0]

            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]

              A bride

              Since this is a black and white photograph it is difficult to say for sure, but the bride's dress seems to be of black crepe in formal furisode style. It has bright floral patterns with five crests which were a frequent pattern in bridal costumes. The hair is arranged in bunkin-takashimada coiffure. A tortoiseshell comb, floral comb and floral hairpin are placed in the hair with a tsunokakushi hood all around.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number72‐148‐0]

                  A woman standing by a European chair covered with a cloth. She is wearing a pale purple kimono with no design and a black collar fashionable in Tokyo in the mid-Meiji Period. The sash is tied in a chidori-musubi knot. Her hair is arranged in the otarai style popular among relatively older women of the Meiji Period. This is a studio photograph.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number49‐35‐0]

                    Women rubbing cheeks

                    A woman has a child on her lap, and has both hands around the child with cheeks touching. In the picture it is written Japanese girls, but actually it looks more like a mother and daughter. This pose is rather Western. It may be a dramatized photo taken by a Westerner.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:[R. Stillfried], (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number27‐24‐0]
