楳嶺花鳥画譜 秋、冬之部
A Meiji-era Japanese picture book of flower-and-bird studies for autumn and winter, drawn by Kono Bairei and published by Okura Shoten in 1899 for artists and students of painting. Its double-page spreads show birds, flowers and foliage in woodblock-printed line and solid black silhouette, and a designer could take from them the economical use of negative space, bold black masses against fine contour, and asymmetric placement across a spread.
