    A meal at an inn

    Although the name and location of the inn is unclear, the transom in the room, the lamp, and the screen suggest that this is a dinner scene at a high-class inn. It is interesting to see the guest and the server, the food served, the sake, the tea set, and the cigarette tray.==Date:1904, Place:Hiroshima, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐10‐0]
