芳文画帖 乙
A Japanese picture album (ehon) of paintings by Kikuchi Hōbun, published in 1902 by Yamada Unsōdō. It is a bound collection of individual painted leaves, with the pictures shown here in black-and-white reproduction. The images are monochrome ink-style scenes of mountains, pines, and birds, which a designer could use for sparse, tonal compositions with plenty of negative space.
