能楽画譜 第8集
This is a Japanese picture album of Noh theatre, published in 1920 by the Nōga Kankōkai, a society that issued illustrated Noh studies for collectors and theatre enthusiasts. Its pictures show stylised Noh performers in costume, drawn in clean ink line with flat grey washes and decorative patterned robes. A designer might borrow the restrained line work, the flat pattern repeats on kimono and robes, and the stiff, theatrical poses.
