ReplyDeleteAre you sure you didn't find this in the

This just goes to show you that while the West was all about starched collars and shiny brass buttons the Japanese had already evolved to textures and layering.
One more thing. I'd recommend "Glimpses of Unfamiliar Japan" by Lafcadio Hearn published in 1894. A westerners observations--and celebrations--on the Japanese culture.
ReplyDeletethis is a beautiful photo and he's hot!!!!!
