[絵本] 〔１〕 松前屋政談 ４号

宮田伊助 編 · 1882 · 宮田伊助 · 21 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese woodblock picture book (ehon) compiled by Miyata Isuke in 1882, issue four of a series retelling the Matsumaeya affair, aimed at general readers. The pictures are black-and-white block prints with dense vertical kana text columns and bold patterned kimono, showing dramatic confrontations and seated figures; a designer might borrow their strong graphic contrast, dynamic figure poses, and patterned textile motifs.
