By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/incredible-color-photos-of-japan-of-the-xix-century.htmlThe Japanese allowed foreigners to trade in the ports of the country only in the middle of the XIX century. It was then that Europeans first began to get acquainted with the culture and life of this mysterious country. It is unknown who made and hand-colored these photos, but thanks to an unknown photographer and the New York Public Library, we can get acquainted with the life of a Japanese village of the 1890s.
