Newly Renovated Japanese Pub
Description
Several details of the pub’s entrance grabbed my attention. First, the huge red paper lantern. Next, the simple sheet-metal eaves, which can still be seen on cheaply built Japanese suburban houses from the 1960s and 1970s. Back in the 80s, an old friend asked me to help her remove rust and paint her sheet metal roof, which was built in the same manner as the eaves of this pub. Finally, the white lanterns above the entrance that are enclosed in wooden frames (listing various menu items) reminded me of how some Shinto shrines display paper lanterns in the same manner during festivals where the names of patrons are painted onto the lanterns.
