About this photo

In a large display cabinet fitted with glass doors, bottles and bags are arranged over several tiers. Framed by ornamental pillars on either side and a wooden base below, the whole cabinet holds together like one big box.

In the table of contents, this is the second display. According to the foreword at the front, choosing the finest display designs and gathering them into one book would serve as a useful reference in years to come. With that in mind, the Nagoya Chamber of Commerce published this album as one of its projects in support of the exhibition.

On the lowest tier of the cabinet, about seven white labels stand in a row in front of the bottles, spaced apart. Against the dark back of the cabinet, the white labels stand out like dots.
