繪本琉球軍記 後編巻1

宮田南北 編次, 松川半山 補正 · 17 pictures

An illustrated Japanese ehon picture book, the second part of the Ehon Ryukyu Gunki, compiled by Miyata Nanboku and revised by Matsukawa Hanzan, with its pictures printed in Japan for a general readership. Its pictures are monochrome ink line drawings of armoured warriors, sword scenes and crowded battle groups, with compact handwritten captions and pale paper textures that a designer might draw on for historical Japanese line art and narrative panel layouts.
