沢久次郎編 · 1887 · 沢久次郎 · 19 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) published in 1887 by Sawa Kyujiro, retelling the Taikoki account of the Battle of Anegawa for a general reading public. The woodblock-printed pages mix dense vertical Japanese text columns with armoured samurai on horseback, bows, arrows and banners, showing how Japanese warrior prints combine narrative text and action figures in one composition.
