Torii gate at Hakone Gongen

Torii gate at Hakone Gongen

A photo of the redecoration project of the former Ichino torii of Hakone shrine. We can tell this picture was taken before 1880 by the steel kettle, but there are no records of the redecoration. In the first year of the Meiji, the shrines were shattered by the Buddhism abolishment movement without means for repair, so this could be when the Priest Korai made some repairs in 1884 when he assumed his post.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number37‐66‐0]
