T. ENAMI STEREOVIEWS of JAPAN

GEISHA LOOKING AT 3-D PHOTOGRAPHS (1) -- Posthumously Awarded Full Membership in Flickr

A small sampling of the finest stereoviews to come out of old Meiji-era Japan.

Click on any thumbnail to the right that appeals to you.

Lots more 3-D of Japan by other old-time photographers, as well as some rare and beautiful 3-D views of the world can be seen HERE : www.flickr.com/photos/24443965@N08/colle ctions/7215761388...

The stereoviews in this set range from those that can be dated from the late 1890s, to ones I can date at 1907.

WHAT PRICES DID ENAMI CHARGE FOR HIS HAND-COLORED STEREOVIEWS AT THE TIME HE MADE THEM OVER 100 YEARS AGO ? See the mid-caption comments at this view : www.flickr.com/photos/24443965@N08/44032 11732/

Enami's career spanned the years from 1892 until his death in 1929, when his son took over the studio.

Besides shooting images in all formats of the time, the industrious and artistic Enami was also Japan's greatest and most prolific stereo-photographer. He was also counted among those whose images have appeared on the pages of National Geographic Magazine --- in Enami's case, he was an honored alumni of at least four issues.

He was born during the Edo-Bakumatsu period, and did all of his camera work during the Meiji, Taisho, and early years of the Showa era.
