Shinbashi Geisha Kiyomatsuya Kimitarô 清松家君太郎 (right) and Takenoya Koyakko 竹の家小奴 (left), around 1915.
There were multiple Geisha named “Koyakko” in Shinbashi. This particular one debuted in 1911. She became a natori of the Hanayagi school of dance in 1923, received the name “Hanayagi Sumi” 花柳寿美 and retired in 1925.
About Kimitarô is only known that she was married to Kabuki actor Onoe Kikugorô VI (1885-1949).
