[絵本] 〔5〕 仇討田宮坊太郎一代記 1

辻岡文助 編 · 1881 · 辻岡文助 · 19 pictures

A Meiji-era (1881) Japanese picture book (ehon) published by Tsujioka Bunsuke, compiled by Tsujioka Bunsuke, presumably for a general popular readership, containing woodblock-style print illustrations with Japanese text in vertical columns. The pictures show scenes from a revenge story, with bold black outlines, dense hatching, and dramatic compositions a designer could study for graphic energy and layout.
