絵本江戸土産 10編
An Edo-period Japanese picture book (ehon) from the Ehon Edo Miyage series, with illustrations by Utagawa Hiroshige and Hiroshige II and text by Shoutei Kinsui, published in Edo by Kikuya Saburo and others. The pictures are woodblock landscapes of Edo sites, with pale washes, pine and cherry trees, paths, small figures, and handwritten-style text columns set into the scenes. A designer could take their layered muted palette, simplified tree shapes, and the way calligraphic text sits beside the image as a compositional device.
