Unlined Summer Kimono

c.1876

A pond with carp and water lilies adorns the lower part of this kimono, and morning glories bloom at the shoulders. This early summer scene is resist dyed and painted on a blue-and-white ground of high-quality silk gauze (ro), subtly patterned in the weave with goldfish in water. The donor’s grandmother, one of four generations of female textile artists, wore this summer kimono during her thirteenth year, around 1876, for her jūsan-mairi (literally, “thirteenth temple visit”) to Arashiyama Hōrinji, a temple in Saga, Kyoto, to receive blessings as she entered adolescence. The kimono has three family crests: one on the center of the back and one on each sleeve.

Melvil Dewey invented the Dewey Decimal System in 1876.

The Dewey Decimal System makes finding books in libraries much simpler. Dividing books into ten main categories, each with its own subcategories, helps librarians and visitors find exactly what they’re looking for without wasting time.

This system is not only about keeping books in line; it’s about making knowledge accessible to everyone. Over 200,000 libraries in 135 countries still use this system today because it works so well​.

for the purposes of this poll we'll be focusing on the two figures on the right, since the leftmost figure's outfit is hard to see and also isn't very comparable with the other two
