The reign of Tokugawa Iemitsu proved to be a stabilizing force in Japanese politics, as he defined the duties of the various office-holders throughout the Bakufu which helped make the Edo Shogunate the longest-lasting samurai government in Japanese history.
Then I took the tram to Dejima, the island the Dutch were allowed to use during the Edo period.
Saw this in Dejima and I wondered wouldn't period Dutch costumes be more appropriate.
