沢久次郎編 · 1887 · 沢久次郎 · 18 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) compiled by Sawa Kyujiro and published by him in 1887, a popular illustrated storybook for general readers. Its woodblock-printed pages pair full-length figures in patterned kimono with columns of kana text, and the pictures show stylised samurai and townsfolk action scenes a designer could draw on for textile motifs, kimono pattern work, or Edo-period print layouts.
