Iris Gracilipes (Crested Iris)

Iris Gracilipes (Crested Iris), a flower of the Iridaceae family, with mauve, yellow and white colouring, native to Japan. Date: early 20th century

E

Women's fashion 1912

Delicate colouring in chiffon and gauze, swathered round the straw hat and hanging in graceful folds at the back which almost reaches the waist. Date: 1912

E

Women cleaning

This was probably taken indoors. The women seem lifeless and the pose staged. The colouring applied to the photograph, however, is relatively skillful, although the red and blue colours are unskilled and artless.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number92‐32‐0]

E

A woman holding a folding fan

The background suggests that this is an indoor studio. The facial expression of the woman is vivacious, but the colouring applied to her clothes and fan is not skillful. The woman is probably posing for a portrait to be used as an advertisement for a geiko (female entertainer).==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number92‐30‐0]

E

Women serving guests

The colouring is poor, especially that applied to the kimono of the woman on the right. The scroll on the wall and sliding doors indicate that this was taken inside. Since there is a gekkin (moon lute), the location may be a house in Nagasaki.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number89‐16‐0]

E

Irises and women

Artificial colouring is applied to the iris flowers, and the scenery in the back is obviously a painted picture. The caption reads Flowers and Pond. The woman standing on the left is holding an enichigasa umbrella that was very popular among women at the time. This photograph was taken indoors.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:Kajima Seibei, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number84‐29‐0]

E

Ashigei (leg performance)

This was taken outdoors. The movements had to be very fast, but the legs and children have still been skillfully captured in this photograph. Additionally, the colouring applied to the clothes of the adults, children, and the stage is skillful.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number84‐23‐0]

E

A tattooed man

This photograph from the album by Kashima Seibei shows a naked tattooed man pouring sake in a cup in the bathroom. Tinting was done following the design on the subject's back. The colouring is rather poor.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:Kajima Seibei, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number84‐16‐0]

E

Girls arranging flowers

A photograph of young women engaged in flower arrangement. Judging from the fusuma sliding doors and scroll hanging on the wall this was likely taken inside. The colouring added to the kimonos, sash, rabbit-ear iris and red flowers is nothing but artless.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number83‐19‐0]
