[絵本] 〔８〕於七吉三浮名の縁結下

沢久次郎編 · 1887 · 沢久次郎 · 16 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon), compiled by Sawa Kyujiro and published in 1887, with woodblock-printed illustrations paired with columns of hand-lettered kana text for a general popular readership. The four pictures show kimono-clad figures in interior and garden settings, with a standing samurai-style man, a seated woman, and a figure kneeling before a seated man, drawn in bold black outlines with patterned textiles and sparse ground lines a designer could borrow for graphic linework and textile pattern.
