EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the late 1890s, a group of Japanese boys are seen working diligently at a sandal store in an open-air market. The boys, dressed in traditional Japanese attire, are intently focused on their tasks, which range from shaping and molding sandals to measuring customers' feet and assisting in sales. The store's inventory is displayed on low shelves and tables, with various types of sandals and footwear arranged neatly for customers to browse. The market setting adds to the vibrant atmosphere of the scene, with other merchants and shoppers bustling about in the background. The sun casts a warm glow over the scene, illuminating the intricate details of the sandals and the boys' expressions of concentration. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of Japanese children during the late 19th century and the importance of the sandal trade in Japanese culture. The sandal store was likely a family business, with the boys learning the trade from their parents or older siblings. Sandals were an essential item for the Japanese population, as they were comfortable, practical, and suitable for various occasions. The boys' dedication and hard work reflect the importance of the sandal trade in Japanese society and the value placed on learning a trade from a young age. This vintage photograph is a valuable historical document that captures the essence of a bygone era. It invites us to reflect on the rich history of Japanese footwear and the role of children in the workforce during the late 19th century. The photograph's composition, lighting, and attention to detail make it a captivating and timeless image.
