[絵本] 〔１２〕笹野権三名鎗伝下

沢久次郎編 · 1887 · 沢久次郎 · 19 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese illustrated picture book (ehon) published in 1887 by Sawa Kyujiro, likely for a popular readership, with woodblock-printed scenes of samurai combat set among columns of Japanese text. The pages show swordsmen and spear fighters in dynamic poses, with bold outlines and hatched shading that a designer could draw on for graphic composition and vertical text layout.
