[絵本] 〔７〕大石一代記２編上

大西庄之助編 · 1885 · 大西庄之助 · 21 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) compiled by Ōnishi Shōnosuke and published by him in 1885, presumably for general popular readers, as the 'Ōishi ichidai-ki' volume 2 part 1 in the series. The four pages show kimono-clad figures kneeling or seated on mats and floors, with black-and-white woodblock line work and dense Japanese text columns beside them, offering a designer patterned robes, interior settings and calligraphic text blocks as reference.
