Bought This Ambrotype, 6 Years Ago!

Been into Ambrotypes for a while now! From 6 years back.

Bought this today off eBay ($95USD), measures 3x4 inches. A ambrotype (photo on glass) from the 1880s. 2 Japanese women in kimono. The seller was someone in Ama-Gun Japan. I find the image mysterious, beautiful and haunting. Will take it with me when I do my own ambrotypes for inspiration. I wonder who they were? What lives did they live?
