[絵本] 〔１〕夜嵐阿衣花廼仇夢２編上

岡本起泉編 · 1882 · 金松堂 · 17 pictures

This is an 1882 Japanese illustrated novel (ehon) in woodblock print, compiled by Okamoto Kiizumi and published by Kinshōdō in Tokyo for a popular reading audience. Its pages show woodblock-printed scenes of richly patterned kimono, interiors with sliding screens and tatami, and columns of Japanese text set beside the figures. A designer might take the dense, patterned textile motifs and the tight integration of text blocks with image panels.
