Vintage Colour Art Artist Drawn Old Postcard, Tuck's Oilette, Fair Japan, Souvenir - Japan-British Exhibition 1910. Ethnic Life. Painted Illustrated by Mortimer Menpes. A By-Canal, Canal, Boat, Native Houses.

Here is seena Japanese working his way down a quiet by-canal, luminous in early sunlight, and in the background is shown some quaint-looking houses, of which the lattice work of new wood is highly decorative. The Japanese workman is very poorly paid, but then his necessities are few and simple, in many cases a daily meal of rice, and a mat to sleep upon, meeting his requirements.
