[絵本] 〔２８〕お志ゆん伝兵衛赤縄の猿曳上

沢久次郎編 · 1887 · 沢久次郎 · 20 pictures

A Japanese illustrated picture book (ehon) compiled by Sawa Kyūjirō and published by him in 1887, showing woodblock-style scenes of women in patterned kimono set in interiors and gardens with columns of Japanese text beside the figures. A designer could take from these the bold black linework, dense textile patterns such as fan and chrysanthemum motifs, and the tight framing of figures against screens and paper walls.
