Япония. Антикварная одежда пожарных

Искала узоры кимоно, нашла не менее интересное. Одежда японских пожарных 19 - начала 20 века. Пожарные в Японии носили многослойную одежду, пропитываемую водой перед сражением с огнем. Узоры указывали на бригаду или ее владельца. Со временем они переросли практическое значение и стали декоративным элементом.

На фотографии ниже пожарная бригада. Снимок начала 20 века.

This French postcard is dated 1905, but the image may be a lot earlier than that as Tokyo changed its name from Yedo in 1868 and their banner indicates that they are the Yedo Fire Brigade.
