岩見英雄録 : 絵本復讐 ６編３
This is an 1886 Japanese illustrated fiction volume (ehon) with Japanese text, written by Kenkontei Tōgai and published by Maekawa Zenbei and others, presenting a revenge tale in woodblock-style line illustrations. The pictures show figures in period dress on verandas and in rooms, with calligraphic text panels set among the drawings, and a designer might take from them the economical black line work, bold black masses of clothing, and the handling of text inset within image frames.
