SOTOKOTO, published since May 1999, is a very popular Japanese lifestyle magazine that offers tips on leading a comfortable and fashionable life to people interested in LOHAS (Lifestyle Of Health And Sustainability). It features articles on slow food, slow life, NPO activities, eco-tourism, and so on.
For an article about how fish consumption in Japan has changed over the past 100 years, the editors were looking for a photograph of a fish shop of at least a century ago, to contrast it with a modern supermarket.
They found exactly the image that they were looking for in the meijishowa online archive.
