Paper Model History - Japanese Print Of Family Making A Paper Model by John Wagenseil


 photo JohnTatebanko_zpsb17d1749.jpg
Thanks to John Wagenseil, from Paper Modelers Forum, for this really cool find! John says: - "Japanese 19th c. print of a family putting together a Tatebanko. The print shows mother and two children looking at print, with partially cut out sheet, ruler and scissors near by. Unfortunately there is no hint about what kind of glue they are using. The print is somewhat suggestive as it shows the woman's naked foot." - Added by Mauther: - "Probably they used glue made of crushed rice, water and salt. The salt had the function to ward off insects. Barefoot, whether deliberate in the picture, probably has to do with the fetish of Japanese men by female feet, which still has its adherents today in Japan."


Agradeço a John Wagenseil, do Forum Paper Modelers, por este achado muito bacana! John diz: - "Gravura japonesa do século 19 mostrando uma família montando um Tatebanko. a gravura mostra uma mãe e seus dois filhos olhando uma impressão, com algumas partes já recortadas, com régua e tesoura próximos. Infelizmente não há pistas de que tipo de cola eles usavam. A gravura é sugestiva, pois mostra a mulher com os pés descalços." - Por Mauther: - "Provavelmente eles usavam cola feita de arroz amassado, água e sal. O sal tinha a função de afastar os insetos. Os pés descalços, se propositais na gravura, provavelmente tem a haver com o fetiche dos homens japoneses por pés femininos, que ainda tem seus adeptos no Japão dos dias de hoje."
