三宅克己 著 · 1911 · 精美堂 · 8 pictures

A 1911 Japanese watercolour instruction book by Miyake Katsumi, published by Seibidō, consisting of finely carved woodblock reproductions for amateur painters learning landscape and tree subjects. The four pictures are soft tonal scenes of a broad tree on a grassy slope, a bare leaning tree beside a flat field, a low thatched farmhouse under trees signed K. Miyake, and a single bare branch with fine twigs, showing how loose washes build foliage, distance and rough bark with minimal line.
