浮世画帖 第1帖

奥村政信//〔画〕 · 32 pictures

An 18th-century Japanese woodblock picture book (ehon) attributed to Okumura Masanobu, printed in Edo for a popular readership. The pages show ink-line figures in a loose, sketchy style, with folk-tale and warrior scenes that a designer might use for lively line work and compositions built on bold silhouettes and empty paper.
