This art work is a traditional Japanese woodblock print, most likely from the Meiji period (late 1800s). It shows a group of Japanese soldiers wearing Western-style military uniforms, sitting and interacting inside a room. Some soldiers are seated on chairs while others stand in the background, and a few women in traditional kimono are serving them food or drinks. The setting includes decorative carpets, tables, and windows, showing a mix of Japanese and Western styles during a time when Japan was modernizing. The bright colors and detailed clothing are typical of ukiyo-e prints, and the Japanese text panels at the top likely describe the people or the event. Overall, the artwork shows a social or military gathering during a time of cultural change in Japan.

No. Beg Borrow Steal Studio is not a pre-loved reseller. We specialise in carefully curated vintage, antiques and exceptional deadstock pieces sourced through trusted auctions, specialist vendors and long-standing collectors around the world.
Deadstock refers to authentic vintage items that have never been sold to or used by a consumer. Although many pieces are decades old, they have remained unworn and carefully preserved by manufacturers, authorised vendors, collectors, or specialist dealers.
Every piece is individually assessed and accurately described before being offered for sale. While many of our deadstock pieces remain in exceptional condition, vintage and antique items may display light signs of age or natural patina, which form part of their history and character. Any notable wear or restoration is always clearly disclosed.
