The Children of the Crown Prince of Japan
The Children of the Crown Prince of Japan. From left: Their Imperial Highnesses Prince Hirohito (1901-1989), Prince Nobuhito (1905-1987) and Prince Yasuhito (1902-1953) of Japan. It would appear that the traditional dress for a young child (regardless of gender) was thus for those up to 2-3 years old in both Europe and Japan (re. Prince Nobuhito - centre). Date: circa 1907

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph, taken circa 1907, we find a charming depiction of The Children of the Crown Prince of Japan: His Imperial Highnesses Prince Hirohito, Prince Nobuhito, and Prince Yasuhito. The three brothers, sons of the future Emperor Taisho and Empress Teimei, are dressed in the traditional formal attire of their time and culture, reflecting the rich history and traditions of Japan during the early 1900s. Prince Hirohito, the eldest, born in 1901, is seen on the right side of the image, wearing a dark-colored robe adorned with intricate patterns and a small, elaborate hat. Prince Nobuhito, the middle child, born in 1905, is pictured in the center, wearing a similar outfit but with a lighter-colored robe and a smaller hat. The youngest, Prince Yasuhito, born in 1902, is on the left, also dressed in the traditional attire for young children, which appears to be similar for both genders, featuring a simple robe and a smaller hat. The photograph offers a captivating glimpse into the lives of these young royals, who would grow up to play significant roles in Japanese history. It is a testament to the shared cultural traditions of Japan and Europe during the early 1900s, where young children, regardless of gender, were dressed in similar formal attire for special occasions. This image is an invaluable historical record, providing a window into the past and offering a fascinating insight into the lives of the imperial family during this era.
