[絵本] 〔５〕柳さわ秋の名月

沢久次郎編 · 1887 · 沢久次郎 · 16 pictures

An 1887 Japanese illustrated picture book (ehon) compiled and published by Sawa Kyūjirō, printed in woodblock style for a general readership. The pictures show courtly figures in layered robes, a seated woman, a bearded man in formal dress and a woman with a patterned cloak, drawn in bold black outlines with handwritten kana captions beside them. A designer could take the dynamic line work, flat patterned textiles and the integration of text and image on the page.
