松花堂画帖 雪
A 1930 Japanese picture album of ink paintings by the early Edo-period painter Shōshōdō Shōshō, published by the Shōshōdō Gaga Kankōkai, a society issuing reproductions for collectors and students of Japanese brush painting. Its pages show sparse monochrome ink sketches of everyday objects, animals and calligraphy on warm cream paper, with a red seal on some leaves; a designer might take their economy of line, generous empty space and asymmetrical placement of small motifs.
