Scenes From Japan

I came across these photographs of Japan taken in the 1870s which were all used by the Philadelphia Museum. I hope you might like them as much as I do. Enjoy!

[Reeling silk] Woman reeling silk.

[Feeding silk worms] Women feeding silk worms.

[Cutting rice] Cutting rice.

[Transplanting rice] Transplanting rice.

[Separating rice from straw] Separating rice from straw. This is my favourite one. I love everything about the man in the middle.
