Framed Print of Sketches in Japan: Night, 1873. Creator: Unknown
Sketches in Japan: Night, 1873. Japan presents great facilities for travelling. In this it is unlike most eastern countries. There are no inns, in our sense of the word, but their place is amply supplied by what are called tea-houses, and one or more of these places may be found in most villages...The rooms in these tea-houses have very fine soft straw mats for the floors, and three sides of the room are made of sliding panels, made of paper, and painted with Japanese landscapes. When the house is shut up for the night, there is an outer defence of sliding panels, made of wood, and these can be barred so as to make the house secure...As soon as it is dark this very strange-like lamp, or lantern, is brought in. The lanterns are the same in every tea-house, consisting of a wooden stand and frame, with (taper pasted round it to preserve the flame from draughts. The flame is produced by a small brass vessel with oil and a wick, like the primitive cruses of early days. The large paper surface of this lamp, being illuminated, casts a fair amount of light around the room; but I did not find it sufficient to write or read with; so a candle is necessary, if you wish to do anything in the evenings'.
