Environ 20 x 25 cm À l'exception de quelques vues, cet album est composé de photographies par Usui Shusaburo. Ce dernier, actif une dizaine d'années entre le milieu des années 1860 et le milieu des années 1870, réalise surtout des paysages. Ses portraits, d'une facture reconnaissable bien que souvent confondus avec ceux de Stillfried, sont ici présentés dans un très bel état de conservation. Si certains ont été recensés (Terry Bennett, Old Japanese Photographs, p.156), plusieurs d'entre-eux sont forts inhabituels et révèlent la grande qualité de portraitiste de l'artiste. L'album comporte, outre ces rares portraits, les célèbres représentations de l'impératrice Haruko et de l'empereur Meiji par Kuichi en 1873.
