絵本難波戦記
An 1891 Japanese woodblock-style picture book (ehon) compiled by Ōkawa Jōkichi and published by Shūeidō, retelling the Naniwa military chronicle of the Osaka campaigns for a general reading public. Its pictures are bold black-line illustrations with calligraphic captions in vertical columns, showing armoured warriors in dramatic action; a designer might borrow the strong ink contour, the dynamic diagonal poses and the framed text panels.
