Transcript of Pictures Of Japanese Fisherman
After the Meiji-Restorarion in 1868, Japanese people’s daily clothes got changed a lot.
Especially, male clothes were much faster to become Western clothes compared to female
clothes.
In late 1800’s, people were wearing semi-traditional clothes. But in 1920s,
Especially, after 1925 of Showa-era, people wear mostly Western clothes in their daily lives.
During the World War2, men wear “national clothe” which looks similar to military clothes
in daily lives. Also, women wear “Monpe” which looks like semi-traditional with upper
Kimono and loose pants. Because, the changes were so quick, we can tell the time when the
pictures below taken by their clothes.
There are pictures about fishermen below divided in 3 sections, “before the WW2”, “during
the WW2” and “after the WW2”
Before the WW2
1. in 1880s, 55 years before the WW2,
At the time, fishermen were wearing traditional clothes and using wooden ships. However,
after Meiji Restoration in 1886, people started to wear Western clothes gradually.
In 1917, 14years before the Pacific War started. By this time, people were wearing Western
clothes as usual. (They even didn’t think these were foreign clothes anymore by the time.)
They wear traditional clothes only in the festival/ritual or only sometime at home.
Fishermen catching Tuna Fish.
This picture was taken in Northern rural part of Japan in 1928, and it shows very typical
images of fishermen in Japan at the time. It is 13 years before the WW2 started.
During the WW2
However, during the WW2, it is very usual for all Japanese men to wear like soldiers. This
costume is called “kokumin-fuku” means “national clothe.”
This was also taken during the world war in 1943, some people were wearing like soldiers as
I mentioned in above, and some others were wearing just usual fisherman costumes.
Other pictures below were taken during the WW2.
