日本風俗図絵 第11輯

黒川真道 編 · 1915 · 日本風俗図絵刊行会 · 123 pictures

A 1915 Japanese compilation of woodblock-style prints titled Nihon Fūzoku Zue, volume 11, edited by Kurokawa Mamichi and published by its own society, collecting historical scenes of Japanese customs and daily life. The pictures show women in patterned kimono at indoor and garden settings, with dense calligraphic captions in the margins; a designer might take their fine linework, stylised patterned textiles, and compact composition with text beside the image.
