新撰東錦絵 白木屋お駒の話（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 album from 1886, made by the artist Yoshitoshi (芳年) and published by Tsunashima Kameki in Tokyo for a general collector's market of picture-book readers. The pictures show a kneeling woman in a plaid kimono before a pale curtain, and a scene of a man restraining a shouting figure in a striped robe among tall stacked papers. A designer might take the bold patterned textiles, the layered plaid and floral kimono motifs, and the dramatic gestural poses of the figures.
