Women enjoying the cool evening

Women enjoying the cool evening

Books (perhaps story books or Noh song books) lie on the tatami and on the knees of a woman with a marumage hairstyle. The woman lying on the tatami seems to have just come out of the bath. A fire vase and ash blower are seen on a tobacco tray. The reed screen and fan exude a feeling of summer.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number89‐8‐0]

    Women taking a rest

    Two young women relax half nude. A kiseru tobacco pipe, tobacco tray, clothes rack, square paper lantern, fan, and a hakomakura box pillow (to keep the hair in place) are visible on the floor. This was probably taken as a souvenir for foreign visitors.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number86‐18‐0]

                  Women relaxing with tea and tobacco

                  Two women are relaxing together but are not engaged in a conversation. A byobu screen is standing next to the tokonoma (alcove) and a brazier is in front of them. The combination of a fan (for summer) and a tea kettle on a brazier (for winter) is rather unnatural.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:Tamamura Kozaburo, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number48‐8‐0]
