弁天小僧菊之介 家橘 （収載資料名：豊国画帖）
A Japanese ehon picture album published in 1861 by Kagiya, drawn by Toyokuni for a general readership of prints collectors. The first picture is a sketchy ink-and-wash study of a round window in a wall with a faint tail-like shape, while the second is a colour woodblock print of a kabuki actor in a patterned purple kimono and checked green jacket, with two flying birds above. A designer might take the bold flat colour blocks, the dense floral and checkerboard textiles, and the sparse sky setting from the print.
