竹内栄久編, 梅堂国政画 · 1884 · 小森宗次郎 · 20 pictures

A Japanese woodblock picture book (ehon) from 1884, compiled by Takeuchi Eiku with illustrations by Umedō Kunimasa and published by Komori Sōjirō, aimed at general readers. Its pages show armoured warriors in close combat with swords and bows, framed by columns of vertical Japanese text, with bold black outlines and dense patterned armour that a designer could use for dynamic action compositions.
