日清交戦画譜
A Meiji-era Japanese woodblock-style picture book, compiled by Maki Kinnosuke and published in 1894, that records battle scenes from the First Sino-Japanese War for a Japanese reading public. The pictures show dense smoke, charging soldiers with bayonets, and a fallen rider in a close, bold black-and-white style that a designer could borrow for dramatic battle compositions, heavy blacks, and cloud-like smoke shapes framed by vertical text panels.
