皕鳥画譜 2冊
A Japanese picture book (ehon) titled 皕鳥画譜, in two volumes, dated 1908, with no publisher recorded, offering bird studies for viewers interested in birdlife. The four pictures show birds in profile, mostly in woodcut-style black and white with bold silhouetted bodies and finely cut feather and claw detail, which a designer could take as a model for strong figure silhouettes combined with textured line work.
