中等日本画帖 巻之5

橋本雅邦 画 · 1905 · 学海指針社 · 16 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese ehon picture album from 1905, published by Gakkai Shishinsha and illustrated by Hashimoto Gaho for a general audience learning Japanese painting. Its pictures are brush-like ink sketches with sparse compositions, such as a pine on a dark rock, a plum branch with a bird, and a thatched-roof village with reeds; a designer might borrow their economical asymmetric layouts and ink-wash textures.
