楠正行弁の内侍を救ふ図(収載資料名:[武者无類外ニ三枚続キ画帖])

年方 · 1891 · 秋山武右衛門 · 2 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese woodblock print from 1891 by Toshikata, published by Akiyama Takeemon, in the ehon picture-book tradition aimed at a general readership. The pictures show a court lady seated in an ox-drawn carriage among reeds, and a samurai in a patterned kimono beside a carriage with attendants, giving a designer clear examples of layered patterned textiles and flat, muted colour fields.
