Hand-coloured albumen silver print by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolfo_Farsari" class="extiw" title="en:Adolfo Farsari">Adolfo Farsari</a>, c.1885. These are not maiko. Maiko would not be obi-less. This image was taken at a well known brothel in Yokohama, the Nectarine No. 9. I've seen this photo as a postcard offered on Ebay several times.
