[絵本] 〔２〕腕競心三俣初編上

川上謂一郎 (鼠辺) 編, 梅堂国政画 · 1880 · 金松堂 · 17 pictures

This is an 1880 Japanese ehon picture book, published by Kinmatsudō, with text compiled by Kawakami Ōichirō under the pen name Sohen and illustrated by Umedō Kunimasa. Its woodblock-style pages pair kimono-clad figures and interiors with dense columns of vertical Japanese text, so a designer can draw on their bold patterned robes, strong black outlines and compact framing.
