[絵本] 〔3〕 高橋阿伝夜叉譚 7編 下

仮名垣魯文 (猫々道人) 編 · 1880 · 金松堂 · 16 pictures

This Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) was compiled by Kanagaki Robun, published by Kinmatsudō in 1880, and aimed at general readers of popular fiction. Its woodblock-style pages pair small figures in interiors and at window screens with dense columns of vertical text, showing how a designer might balance image and block of type in a page layout.
