Sanshin Tailor
On the second floor, which juts out over the street, tall windows stand neatly in a row. The critic summed up this tailor's shop in a few words: "compact and well put together."
About this photo
A row of tall, narrow windows lines the second floor, which pushes well out over the street. On the ground floor are a large glass display window and an entrance, and from the left fall the line of a sloping roof and a shadow like a tree or ivy. Below, the stone-paved road spreads out bright.
The comment on the tailor "Sanshin" is a single sentence: "A new, pleasant, compact and well-put-together building, with the quality of fine craft." In just a few words it sums up the building's newness, its comfort and its neat composition.
Look closely at the paving stones at the lower left: the joints between them form a diagonal grid. Thin dark lines cross the bright stone, making the finest pattern in the whole photograph.
