新撰東錦絵 田宮坊太郎之話（収載資料名：[武者无類外ニ三枚続キ画帖]）

芳年 · 1886 · 綱島亀吉 · 2 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese woodblock print from 1886, published by Tsunashima Kamekichi and designed by Yoshitoshi, part of a picture-book series of new Tōkyō prints that retells the story of Tamiya Bōtarō. The two pictures show a robed figure climbing a rope beside a well among pines and yellow flowers, and a seated monk beside lotus leaves and pink blossoms on a pond. Designers can take from them the flat colour fields, the bold outlined figures and the layered foliage that frame the scene.
