義太夫二百段

関由蔵 編 · 1910 · 由盛閣[ほか] · 1 picture

A Meiji-era Japanese illustrated book compiled by Seki Yuzo and published in 1910 by Yusei-kaku, a picture book (ehon) on gidayu chanted drama. The single picture is a black-and-white woodblock-style print of a young girl in a patterned kimono with rose motifs, holding a large round fan or cloth and standing among scattered blossoms, a clean and simple figure a designer could borrow for a motif with flat decorative repeat patterns.
