[絵本] 〔１〕 小倉山青樹栄昔日新話 ３編

泉竜亭是正 編, 桜斎房種 画 · 1880 · 延寿堂 · 21 pictures

An 1880 Japanese ehon picture book (volume 3 of a series) compiled by Izumi Ryūtei Zesei and illustrated by Ōsai Fusane, published by Enjudō. The woodblock pictures show kabuki-style actors in patterned kimono, with a few lines of text beside each scene, and a designer could draw on their dense textile patterns, costume and staging of figures.
