[絵本] 〔７〕桶狭間大合戦

堤吉兵衛編 · 1889 · 堤吉兵衛 · 15 pictures

This Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) was compiled and published by Tsutsumi Kichibei in 1889, printed in Japan for a general readership. Its four pictures are woodblock-style black-and-white prints of armoured samurai in battle, with dense patterned armour, banners, and calligraphic text columns that a designer could draw on for bold graphic contrast.
