OLD PICTURES OF JAPAN Seeing the 5 million Yen being offered for an old picture of Matsue Castle, I wondered how many pictures of Japan and particularly Japanese Castles existed from the 1870s. After a little searching I found the University of Nagasaki had a good collection online and I thought others might be interested in these. Oh, in case you are wondering, no the Matsue Castle gate wasnt in there. Picture: Kumamoto Castle taken between 1871 and 1874. I am not sure if the color was added by hand (painted) afterwards or some other process was used.
