Summary
[edit]DescriptionToo Dignified to smile, in Japan (1914 by Elstner Hilton).jpg |
This enigmatic photo is from an album Elstner Hilton compiled in Japan between 1914 and 1918. Elstner was my spouse's uncle. I consider the photograph enigmatic because I don't know the context in which it was taken. Were the sitters known to Uncle Elstner? Was the photo taken at his house? If the women were to dignified to smile, why did they consent to have their photograph taken at all? Under the circumstances, was averting the eyes considered the socially acceptable thing to do? |
