Description
Enjoy an incredible collection of 128 images showing the fleeting, effervescent beauty of young geisha apprentices captured over a century ago.
This keepsake, fan-shaped book captures a moment now lost to history, when Japanese girls were indentured as young as 6.
Dressed like dolls, they were paraded through parties and celebrated for their beauty, charm, and innocence, all the while learning the music, dance, conversational, and gaming skills expected in a master of their craft.
Here is a wonderful opportunity to see these girls in the glory of their colorful regalia, posing before a newly introduced invention, the camera.
This treasury of hand-tinted postcard and real-photo images is a unique book you will treasure forever.
