Summary[edit]
| Description |
Collection: Willard Dickerman Straight and Early U.S.-Korea Diplomatic Relations, Cornell University Library Title: Coreans to cut tobacco and the persimmons-seller Date: ca. 1904 Place: Asia: South Korea Type: Postcards/Ephemera Description: Regarding the right side of this particular image, tobacco was introduced around 1618 (Kwanghaegun 10-yon) to Korea, probably from Japan or by merchants who traded to Beijing. Clearly the main objective of the photographer was to capture the processing of the tobacco selling here, as evidenced by the onlooking and curious crowd on the left. The seller of persimmon pictured on the left plies an old trade. The persimmon is native in Asia and very popular in Korea. In autumn persimmons are seen everywhere in the countryside. It is one of the essential three-colored fruits that are used for the ceremony to commemorate ancestors. Dried persimmons are used to make a persimmon punch ('sujonggwa') which is a traditional dessert for Lunar New Year.
