EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Traditional Japanese Feast of Dolls (Hina Matsuri), 1899. The Hina Matsuri, or Doll Festival, is an ancient Japanese tradition celebrated on the third day of the third month. This beautiful photograph, taken in 1899, captures the essence of this cherished custom as it unfolds within a Japanese home. In preparation for the Hina Matsuri, families meticulously display their heirloom Hina dolls - intricately crafted representations of the imperial court - on a tiered platform called a Hina Aradake. These dolls symbolize purity, prosperity, and good fortune for girls, who would receive new additions to their collections each year. The dolls are dressed in traditional Heian period attire and are accompanied by various accessories, including miniature furniture, food, and tea sets. The elaborate display reflects the harmony and elegance of Japanese culture, as well as the importance placed on family and tradition. The girls in this photograph, dressed in their finest kimonos, eagerly await the arrival of their friends and family to admire their new dolls and share in the joy of this special day. The Hina Matsuri not only serves as a celebration of girlhood but also as a reminder of the rich history and customs that continue to shape Japanese culture. This image, preserved in the Mary Evans Prints Online archive, offers a glimpse into the past and the enduring beauty of the Hina Matsuri tradition.
