釈菊憧梅健信士 四代目尾上菊五郎(収載資料名:豊国画帖)
A Japanese woodblock print from 1860 by Utagawa Kunisada (Toyokuni), part of an album of portraits for a Japanese readership. It shows an actor in a dark blue kimono with white floral crest patterns, with calligraphic inscriptions and a red seal in the margins. A designer might take its flat colour blocks, bold outlines, and decorative textile patterns for a layout or pattern reference.
