Japanese Man Elaborate Full Backpiece Tattoo Irezumi Art Vtg. Photo 19thC.

This quality reprint of a vintage photo shows a Japanese man from behind, displaying an extensive and intricate full-back tattoo, known as Irezumi. This traditional Japanese art form has a complex history, often associated with certain social classes. During the Meiji period (1868-1912), when this photograph was likely taken, tattooing was officially banned by the government, which drove the practice underground and increased its mystique.
