景文花鳥画譜
A Meiji-era Japanese ehon picture book of birds and flowers, reduced and copied in 1892 by Fukui Gessai and published by Aoki Tsunesaburo for a general audience of painters and collectors. The four pictures show birds perched or in flight among leaves and blossoms in sparse ink-line woodblock style, with generous white space and rounded, simplified foliage a designer could adapt for botanical or nature motifs.
