An 1879 Japanese illustrated picture book (ehon) compiled by Shinoda Senka and illustrated by Ikuta Yoshiharu, published by Yamamura Kinzaburo, aimed at general readers of the Meiji period. Each page pairs a woodblock-style image of a woman in patterned kimono with dense columns of vertical Japanese text, and the figures show stylised robes, hairstyles and interior settings a designer could draw on for pattern and layout.
