Geisha Screensaver

content:

Geisha"s are traditional Japanese artist-entertainers. The word geisha literally means "art person" or "artisan". Geisha"s were very common in the 18th and 19th centuries and are still in existence today, although their numbers are dwindling. The geisha tradition evolved from the taikomochi or h?kan, similar to court jesters. The first geisha were all male; as women began to take the role they were known as onna geisha, or "woman geisha." Geisha today are exclusively female. This is PixelParadox.com creation.
