東京百美人 The One Hundred Beauties of Tokyo
Featured exhibit "東京百美人(Tokyo Hyakubijin) - The One Hundred Beauties of Tokyo" from MEIJI TAISHO project. What did women look like 100 years ago? This content intends to get an idea of the first beauty contest in Japan and the figures of selected geisha girls based on articles through independent surveys and referring to photos taken at that time. The vertically long content consisting of a two-column layout article and a one-column image gallery is put together with simplicity adopting the basic tone of white. It's a content with Japanese language but I hope you enjoy the unique old Japanese photographs.
