Japanese Farmer Grinding Pounding Rice Treadmill Machine Rural Vtg. Photo 19thC.
This quality reprint of a vintage photo shows a Japanese farmer operating a foot-powered tilt-hammer, known as a kara-usu, to pound or grind rice. This type of agricultural machinery was common in rural Japan during the Meiji period for processing grain. The photograph, from the studio of Baron von Stillfried, captures a scene of daily labor and traditional technology in the late 19th century.
