絵本荒川武勇伝
An 1891 Japanese ehon picture book published by Nakamura Yoshimatsu, presenting heroic warrior figures in woodblock-style line prints for a general popular readership. The four pictures show standing samurai and kabuki-like figures in patterned robes and hakama, set against pine branches, water, and sea-wave motifs, with bold black outlines and hatched textile patterns a designer could reuse for surface pattern work and line-art characters.
