A scene of a meal

The woman, apparently a maid, sitting beside the container of cooked rice is offering second helpings by extending the tray. The woman in the center is eating rice and side dishes with chopsticks. The shoji screen, three-stringed shamisen and chrysanthemums make this a classic Japanese scene.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number92‐49‐0]
