[絵本] 〔２６〕箱根権現蹇仇討下

辻岡文助編 · 1881 · 辻岡文助 · 17 pictures

This is a Japanese illustrated picture book (ehon) compiled by Tsujioka Bunsuke and published in 1881, presumably for a general reading public. Its woodblock-printed pages show samurai and warriors in patterned robes beside columns of kana text, with dense rough ink linework. A designer might take its bold patterned textiles, such as checkered and hexagon-motif garments, and its tightly packed text-and-image layouts as reference.
