[絵本] 〔１〕恋相場花王夜嵐初編下

仮名垣魯文 (猫々道人) 編 · 1880 · 金松堂 · 20 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) compiled by Kanagaki Robun under the name Neko Neko Dojin, published by Kinmatsudo in 1880 for popular readers. Its pages show woodblock-style figures of women in patterned kimono indoors, with columns of kana text running beside them; the layouts, dense hatching on patterned fabric, and framing screens offer a designer clear examples of bold black-line graphic composition.
