笠を被った茜襷の女性は早乙女と思われるが、この写真はどこかの神社神田の神事と思われる。早乙女の後には、すでに田植えを済ました田があり、通常ではこのような田植えは考えられない。Women wear bamboo hats and kimono with sleeves pulled up with cords. This may be a religious rite performed in a rice paddy belonging to a Shinto shrine. The rice planting has been finished in the area behind the women. This scene was probably staged for the camera
