Description
Photograph of two women in an oriental house, [s.d.]. The two women face away from the foreground as they walk arm-and-arm in long dresses. Their dresses shimmer in the light as they display intricate embroidery. Sashes hang over their backs from the round hats that sit delicately on their heads. To the right of them two other women stand with their hair tied in buns. Others kneel in front of a set of double doors in the background. Photo sleeve reads "Japanese, Chinese, Korean".
