The vibrant colors bring to life the bustling streets of Japan during the late 19th century, where this mode of transport was a common sight. The image captures not only the beauty of the women dressed in their intricate kimonos but also highlights the hard work of the two drivers pulling the rickshaw. It serves as a reminder of a time when such means of conveyance were essential for transportation in crowded urban areas.
