A pilgrimage near Lake Kawaguchi

A pilgrimage near Lake Kawaguchi

The caption says Pilgrims beating little gongs -- house covered with drying corn, near Lake Kawaguchi, Japan. The man and woman wearing bamboo hats and holding beads and bells appear to be pilgrims, but their religious affiliation is unclear. This photograph, which shows harvested corn drying on the houses in the background, provides valuable insights into lifestyles of the Meiji Period.==Date:1904, Place:Yamanashi, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐84‐0]
