絵本賤ケ岳戦記 : 古今実伝
An 1887 Japanese illustrated book (ehon) titled Ebon Shizugatake Senki, compiled by Arakawa Tōbei and published by Kinkōdō, presenting a historical account of the Shizugatake battle. Its woodblock-style pictures show armoured samurai in dense action, with dramatic mountain and forest settings, dynamic horse-riding poses, and Japanese text running along the tops of the panels that a designer could use for bold, high-contrast graphic compositions.
