[絵本] 〔14〕 柳沢女太平記 下

大西庄之助 編 · 1885 · 大西庄之助 · 20 pictures

A Meiji-era (1885) Japanese illustrated picture book, an ehon compiled by Ōnishi Shōnosuke, printed as woodblock-style pages with dense kana text set in vertical columns beside scenes. The pages show samurai figures, a seated pair in formal dress, a bundled figure under a patterned quilt, and a sliding screen interior, offering a designer strong examples of dense text-and-image page layout and bold black-line Edo-style figure drawing.
