義太夫浄瑠璃名作集
A 1911 Japanese collection of gidayu joruri masterpieces, compiled by the Tokyo Biion Society and published by Kokkado, aimed at readers of puppet-theatre chant. The pictures are halftone portraits of men and women framed in circles, inset panels, and patterned backgrounds, with a cover of bamboo and vertical calligraphy; a designer might borrow the circular portrait framing, the layered inset composition, and the lattice and scroll borders.
