    This old photo of a man enjoying some rice. Given how rare it is to see people smiling in old photos it’s almost jarring/anachronistic to see such a display of emotion.

      I’ve heard one of the reasons you don’t often see people smiling on old photos is because you had to hold the pose for quite a while. So in order to make it easier (and prolly not look like an idiot) they often went for the most mundane expressions. Not sure if it’s true though. Someone more informed is welcome to enlighten me.
