[絵本] 〔４６〕安珍清姫譚上

沢久次郎編 · 1887 · 沢久次郎 · 21 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) published in 1887 by Sawa Kyūjirō, probably for a popular readership, with its title on the Anchin Kiyohime legend. The pages pair woodblock-style figure scenes with dense columns of Japanese text. A designer could draw on the compact, ink-line figure drawing, the patterned kimono textures, and the layout that places text and image side by side.
