[絵本] 〔８〕朝鮮変動記第１号上

宮田伊助編 · 1882 · 宮田伊助 · 22 pictures

This is a Meiji-era Japanese illustrated picture book (ehon) compiled by Miyata Isuke and published by him in 1882, presenting a woodblock-style account of the Korean upheaval of that year for a general readership. The pictures are bold black-and-white line drawings with dense vertical columns of kana text, showing dynamic, staged action with swirling sword and staff gestures, rushing figures, and a stylized wave-patterned ground that a designer could draw on for graphic dynamism and high-contrast linework.
