Antique real photo postcard featuring a striking studio portrait of a Japanese woman wearing a patterned kimono, layered collar, and a formal coiffure typical of early 20th-century portrait photography. She holds a large folding fan, posed in a classic three-quarter stance against a neutral studio backdrop. The image is crisp, expressive, and showcases fine textile detail and traditional hairstyling.

Reverse is marked Union Postale Universelle / Carte Postale, with Made in Japan imprint and Japanese script. Standard size, 4½ x 3½ inches, unused.

A highly collectible portrait appealing to enthusiasts of Japanese costume, geisha-style imagery, early photographic studios, and turn-of-the-century cultural documentation.

Moderate toning and foxing visible throughout, particularly along the margins and on the reverse. Light surface wear but no major creases or tears. Image detail remains strong and well-defined. Corners show typical soft wear for age.
