Comments - Charming design of the Meiji Empress and her ladies-in-waiting visiting Kudan Sakagami Yasukuni Shrine, walking under a large wooden torii gate draped with sacred ropes called shimenawa. The women all wear patterned robes over white kimono tucked into red hakama pants, one sheltering the empress with Western style umbrella. Uniformed soldiers stand guard at right next to an ornate monument. An attractive scene, nicely detailed.
