🔸 Tomigiku, 1910s, Japan. “…During the years Taisho 10 and Taisho 11 (1921 and 1922), Tomigiku was one of the great beauties of Kyoto. With her long eyelashes, and watery eyes reflecting the light, it is said that she was worth her weight in gold. She turned heads wherever she went. If anyone walking around the Maruyama and Gion areas happened to catch a glimpse of her walking by, just the mere sight of her stopped them in their tracks, and they saw her on her way as someone seeing off a person of high rank or great fame…”.

Tomigiku and Komitsu 1920s

Maiko Tomigiku of Gion Kobu playing the tsuzumi hand-drum; 1910s.
Tomigiku-san became a Maiko in the very late Meiji Period (1868-1912) and worked as a Geiko until the early Shōwa Period (1926-1989).
She was already popular as a Maiko and became tremendously successful as a young Geiko in the late 1910s and early 1920s.
She also was a very popular model for photographs as many people found her eyes to be very beautiful, and was often photographed alongside the equally famous Momotaro-san.
She appears in several Miyako Odori programmes as a dancer, a tachikata Geiko.
