[絵本] 〔５〕成田山利生記下

宮田伊助編 · 1882 · 宮田伊助 · 20 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) from 1882, compiled and published by Miyata Isuke, printed as woodblock-style illustrations with kana and kanji captions set beside the figures. The pages show Edo-period costumed figures in dynamic poses, and a designer could take from them the bold stripe and kimono patterning, the calligraphic text columns, and the compressed, flat staging of crowd scenes.
