通俗絵本三国志 巻16-30(下)

1885 · 鶴声社 · 56 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese woodblock-style picture book (ehon) printed by Kakuseisha in 1885, adapting the Three Kingdoms romance for a popular readership. The pictures are bold black-and-white line woodcuts with dense hatching, captioned in kanji panels, showing warriors in armour, mountain and pine settings, and palace interiors; a designer might borrow their strong contour lines, patterned costume textures, and compact narrative framing.
