楳嶺花鳥画譜 断腸花・烏骨鶏(収載資料名:あづまにしきゑ)

楳嶺 · 1883 · 大倉孫兵衛 · 2 pictures

This Meiji-era Japanese ehon picture book of flower-and-bird studies was published in 1883 in Tokyo by Okura Magobei and drawn by the artist Baiyō. The second print shows two white silkie hens among pink flowers and broad green leaves, drawn with clean outlines and flat colour, useful to a designer seeking economical botanical framing. The first shows only a red-and-green overlapping pattern and adds little.
