A family celebrating their child

A family celebrating their child

The boys are probably brothers with their older sister. They wear haori coats and hakama trousers. The woman holding the younger brother on her knees is probably the mother and the woman on the right her mother-in-law. A woven bamboo basket containing rice cakes or perhaps chimaki dumplings is nearby. This is probably a photograph to commemorate a Meiji Period Shichi-go-san children's day festival, because the padded clothing indicate early winter.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:Usui Shuzaburo, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number94‐2‐0]

              The votive lantern in the rear suggests that this is an autumn festival.
