A collection of works by Kineo Kuwabara, who has been active as a photo critic and photographer since before and after the war, "Manshu 1940". Kineo Kuwabara has been involved in and edited many of the "photo magazines" that have played an important role in the postwar Japanese photography world. "Camera art (formerly Sankei Camera)", "Quarterly photographic images", "Photo criticism", etc. are famous, but it was around 1970, before the 60th birthday, that the photographic plates left as an amateur photographer began to attract attention. .. Since his work was nominated for "100 Years of Photography-History of Photographic Expressions by Japanese" (1968), Koji Taki and Shomei Tomatsu, who have been involved in the exhibition, have evaluated the work's splendor, and Kuwahara also Nobuyoshi Araki, who had been paying attention to it from an early stage, recommended that he hold a solo exhibition, and finally the first photo book "Tokyo 1936" was published by Araki's print. This book was published in the same year with the same design and format as the first, and consists of plates taken when going on a trip to Manchuria in 1945. (Recorded in The Japanese Photobook 1912–1990)
