[絵本] 〔45〕 英勇力競 上

沢久次郎 編 · 1887 · 沢久次郎 · 20 pictures

An 1887 Japanese ehon picture book compiled by Sawa Kyujiro and published by him, a woodblock-printed storybook of heroic warriors with kanji text in columns. The pictures show bold black-and-white hero scenes with dense, scratchy linework and patterned robes, a useful model for designers seeking energetic period graphics and strong figure-and-text layouts.
