Man’s UnderKimono (Nagajuban) with Scene of the RussoJapanese War featuring General Nogi - The Metropolitan Museum of Art
A nagajuban is an informal robe often decorated with eyecatching designs. This piece may be a oneofakind commemorative garment related to Japan’s victory in the RussoJapanese War of 1904–5. The scene refers to the lengthy Japanese siege of Port Arthur, an engagement lasting from August 1, 1904 to January 2, 1905, when the Russian general, Anatoly Stessel, surrendered to General Nogi Maresuke. After the war, General Nogi was celebrated as a national hero. Some scholars see such commemorative clothing as precursors of the more overtly propagandistic Japanese garments of the 1930s and World War II years.Meiji period (1868–1912) 1900 - 1999
