Antique Japanese Photo Glass Negative Plate

This is an antique Japanese photo glass negative plate. The picture shows a family sitting indoor in the living room of a traditional Japanese house. Four family members appear on the picture: a woman carrying a toddler in her arms, a young man wearing a school uniform and an old man wearing traditional Japanese clothing. They are sitting under a cosy and warm Kotastu, a low wooden heated table covered by a blanket. This detailed negative plate is a precious item showing the intimacy of a Japanese family in the 1900s.
