Carver in Gold and Silver. This is one of the photographs that T. Enami had taken for Victor Marsh, the american dealer in fine arts and curiosa. Enami had used a stereo camera, since some of these photographs were also available as stereoviews.  From the album of a german (?) tradesman living and working in Yokohama around 1908.
