[絵本] 〔７〕慶安太平記

児玉又七編 · 1880 · 大橋堂 · 15 pictures

An 1880 Japanese ehon picture book titled Keian Taiheiki, compiled by Kodama Matashichi and published by Ohashido, with woodblock-style illustrations of samurai and figures set among printed text columns. The pictures are bold black-and-white compositions with dense patterned backgrounds, costume detail and kana captions, suggesting graphic designers can draw on their hatched textures, strong silhouettes and high-contrast figure placement.
