[絵本] 〔５〕佐倉宗吾一代記

児玉又七編 · 1880 · 大橋堂 · 18 pictures

An 1880 Japanese ehon picture book, volume 5 of the Sakura Sogoro life story, compiled by Kodama Matashichi and published by Ōhashidō, with printed text columns framing woodblock-style scenes. The pictures show samurai and commoners in dark interiors with bold black ink masses, strong diagonal figures, and dense calligraphy, offering a designer a study in high-contrast black-and-white composition and integrated text-image layout.
