 Young Geishas from the Gion district
 Miyako is a spring performance presented by geishas in the Gion district. The motifs are inspired by classical Japanese culture.
 Kusakabe Kimbei (1841-1934) was a colorist and assistant to Felice Beato and Baron Raimond Von Stillfried before opening his own studio in Yokohama in 1881.
 Around 1885, he bought back the negatives of Beato and Stillfried. Kimbei immortalized numerous portraits of Japanese people at the end of the 19th century. The prints, which he hand-colored, were then sold to tourists visiting the country.
