絵本通俗三国志 巻1
A Meiji-era Japanese illustrated book, the Ehon Tsūzoku Sangokushi volume 1, published in 1884 by Shimizu Ichijirō, retelling the Chinese Three Kingdoms romance in woodblock-style line prints for general readers. The pictures are bold black-and-white ink scenes of armoured warriors in combat, with dynamic diagonals, radiating burst lines, and dense hatched shadows that a designer could draw on for action composition and graphic line work.
