新選文林画譜 竹
A Japanese ehon picture manual on bamboo, written and drawn by Suzuki Seikei (Tsunematsu) and published by Sekizenkan in 1892. Its pages show ink-brush bamboo studies with leaves, stems and nodes, some with inscribed poem or colophon characters, offering designers a compact model of economical brush line, dark-light massing and negative space.
