絵本真田三代記 第1-5編

編者不詳 · 1884 · 成文社 · 29 pictures

An 1884 Japanese ehon picture book published by Seibunsha, its author unknown, presenting episodes from the Sanada family's three generations in woodblock-style line prints for a general reading public. The pictures show armoured warriors, a robed courtier before a screen, and a monk beside a horned helmet, drawn in crisp black outlines with lettered cartouches that a designer could borrow for bold graphic framing and vertical title panels.
