Women lying together

Two women are sleeping side by side. Behind them is a scroll with an illustration of an old pine tree and a folding screen depicting a scene from the Tale of Genji. They are covered by a blanket, called yogi (night wear), with a collar and sleeves. Black velvet is sewn around the collar to protect it from the dirt and cold.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number92‐46‐0]

              Girls arranging flowers

              A photograph of young women engaged in flower arrangement. Judging from the fusuma sliding doors and scroll hanging on the wall this was likely taken inside. The colouring added to the kimonos, sash, rabbit-ear iris and red flowers is nothing but artless.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number83‐19‐0]

                    Women enjoying the cool evening

                    A woman stands with a round fan in front of the front wooden gate, and another woman talks to the woman below from the window upstairs, leaning on the fence and holding a scroll. It looks like a scene from a play, and looks dramatized, but we seem to be able to hear their conversation.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:Ogawa Kazumasa, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number44‐9‐0]
