      Russian generals and Japanese soldiers

      The surface of the photograph shows severe chipping, probably because it is a duplication of a photograph from the Russo-Japanese war (1904-1905). The time and location are unknown, but the bearded man next to the horse seems to be a Russian general.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number72‐63‐0]

        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]

                    The men are wearing the armour of the time. It includes the torso protector, a throwback to older times. The armour consists of a helmet and protectors for the shoulders, upper arms, arms, thighs, mouth, jaw, and throat. However, the footwear of the man on the right is unnatural because he should be wearing socks made from deer skin or wood.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:R.
