@theinformant_x: Early silent footage of Japanese Geisha and Maiko girls in late 1890s. Possibly filmed in the Kyoto prefecture of Gion. 19th century footage restored and colorized w/sound using Al machine learning tools. While many Japanese women still wore the traditional Kimono, Obi and the Furisode, these women were entertainers. The dangling Kansanshi on the sides of their hairstyles is a giveaway. The decorative Sakura blossoms in their hair. Also the demonstration of traditional Japanese dancing to the accompaniment of two Shamisen players. All key components in the art of the Geisha apprentice. #History #HistoryTime #historypost #theinformant #tokyo #japanese #geisha #sakura #kansanshi #kimono #kyoto #1890 #1890s #19thcentury
