Historical Identity & Date Cautions

National Diet Library identifies the subject as Princess Kazunomiya (1846–1877), daughter of Emperor Ninkō and wife of shogun Tokugawa Iemochi. The listed book-publication years 1933–1935 concern later reproduction and indexing of historical source material, not the creation or capture date of the portrait. The NDL collection notes that some entries are photographs of paintings; this record therefore uses the neutral term historical portrait.

Artistic Adaptation

ALL THAT COINS may prepare a separately documented color restoration, tonal cleanup, crop, paper-holder label and background composition. Maintain a preserved original image, distinguish AI-restored or creatively recolored artwork from historical evidence, and retain files and prompts documenting the new design work.

Do not present a generated recoloring as the authentic coloration of a nineteenth-century portrait. Historic kimono patterns and the sitter’s posture should be preserved as closely as practical.
