芳年存画(収載資料名:[武者无類外ニ三枚続キ画帖])

芳年 · 1884 · 秋山武右衛門 · 2 pictures

Hōsai Gafu-like ehon sketchbook titled 芳年存画 by Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, published in Tokyo in 1884 by Akiyama Takeemon for a Japanese readership. The two pictures show ink-and-colour figure studies with a mischievous, caricatured energy, offering a designer loose line work, expressive gesture, and compositions built around bold curves and cropped edges.
