絵本越後騒動記 (表紙男性)

1888 · 薫志堂 · 4 pictures

A late-nineteenth-century Japanese picture book (ehon) published in 1888 by Kunshidō, a Japanese publisher, for a general readership. Its pictures are black-and-white woodblock-style prints, rotated on the page, showing samurai in struggle, a figure on a ladder, and a seated man in a flowered frame with cherry blossoms; a designer might draw on their bold black masses, dense hatching, and patterned kimono textures.
