絵本西遊記全伝 初編 巻7,8
An 1883 Japanese ehon picture book, the first installment of an illustrated Journey to the West adaptation, published in Tokyo by Tokyo Kinkyoku Publishing and translated by Kōboku Sanjin for a general reading audience. Its woodblock-style line drawings show monkey-king heroes in mountain caves and rocky landscapes, with calligraphic captions set beside the figures; a designer could draw on their bold black outlines, dense hatching for rock and foliage, and the strong figure poses.
