Women in Okano Garden

Women in Okano Garden

Four women are quietly going to the back of the house, dragging their kimono bottoms and looking at the garden. This photograph has a good perspective. A sharp eye will notice that there are five pairs of geta clogs on the step but only four women. Where is the other person? The old tree in the garden may be a plum tree.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:A. Farsari, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number95‐19‐0]
