[絵本] 〔５〕伊達評定奥之碑上

大西庄之助編 · 1885 · 大西庄之助 · 22 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) compiled by Ōnishi Shōnosuke and published in 1885, likely for popular readers in Japan. Its woodblock-printed pages pair full-figure samurai and townspeople with columns of vertical kana text, showing a dense, flat, linear graphic style. A designer might take from them the economical black-line figure drawing, the patterned kimono textures, and the way text and image share one page.
