安藤徳太郎編, 豊原国周画 · 1879 · 斎藤長吉 · 19 pictures

A Japanese woodblock picture book (ehon) from 1879, published by Saitō Chōkichi, with illustrations by Toyohara Kunikuni and text compiled by Andō Tokutarō, made for a general reading public. Its pages show kabuki-style actors in patterned kimono, swords and screens set against dense columns of printed Japanese text, giving a designer a model of bold black line, patterned textile motifs and text-and-image page layout.
