荒川吉五郎編 · 1882 · 荒川吉五郎 · 18 pictures

An 1882 Japanese woodblock picture book (ehon) published by Arakawa Kichigoro, volume seven of the Sanada Sandaiki, a chronicle of the Sanada family's warriors, aimed at general readers. Its pictures show armoured samurai in bold black-line woodcut style, with framed Japanese text captions set beside the figures, and a designer could draw on their dense hatching, strong silhouettes, and the way text and image share one page.
