Japanese Village Street Festival Carp Banners Koinobori Vtg. Photo 19thC.
This quality reprint of a vintage photo shows a street scene in a Japanese village decorated with large, carp-shaped windsocks known as koinobori. People in traditional attire stand near wooden buildings and a rickshaw on an unpaved road. Koinobori are traditionally flown in Japan to celebrate Children's Day (formerly Boys' Day), a custom dating back to the Edo period. The carp symbolize strength and success, wishing for the children in the family to grow up healthy and strong.
