[絵本] 〔２〕宮本武蔵一代記下

綱島亀吉編 · 1881 · 島鮮堂 · 21 pictures

An 1881 Japanese ehon picture book, volume 2 of a Miyamoto Musashi life story, compiled by Tsunashima Kameki and published by Tōsendō, aimed at general readers of popular samurai narrative. Its pages mix woodblock figure scenes with dense columns of Japanese text, showing bold outline figures in armour and robes, sword fights, and seated portraits with name labels, useful to designers for graphic framing of text and image and for dynamic action poses.
