新撰東錦絵 橋本屋白糸之話（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 series by Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, published in 1886 by Tsunashima Kamekichi in Tokyo, made for a general urban audience of collectors and readers of ehon picture books. Its prints show an interior scene of figures on a staircase with lacquered geta sandals in the foreground, and a woman in a layered kimono before a patterned screen, with flat colour, strong outlines, and dense textile patterning that a designer could draw on for pattern and palette.
