絵本太閤記 下巻
This is a Japanese ehon picture book, the second volume of an illustrated biography of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, written by Okada Gyokuzan and published in 1886 by Bunjidō. Its woodblock-style pages show samurai in armour, a seated lord in formal robes, and a fleeing woman in a patterned kimono, all framed by columns of printed Japanese text. A designer might take the dense, flat black-and-white linework, the patterned textiles, and the calligraphic captions set into the images.
