絵本曽我物語 7
A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) of 1883, published in Tokyo and compiled by Isshō Koji with illustrations by Hokkyō Chūwa, retelling the Soga brothers' vendetta tale for a general readership. Its pictures are crisp black-and-white woodblock-style line drawings with cropped pine branches, sloping roofs and tightly grouped figures, offering a designer strong graphic contrast and compositional framing ideas drawn from Japanese pictorial convention.
