[絵本] 〔６〕本朝廿四孝下

永島辰五郎編 · 1882 · 小森宗次郎 · 18 pictures

An 1882 Japanese ehon picture book in woodblock print, volume 6 of the Honchō Nijūshikō series, compiled by Nagashima Tatsugorō and published by Komori Sōjirō for a popular readership. The pages pair dense columns of Japanese text with full-page scenes of armoured warriors, courtiers and interior settings. A designer could draw on the bold patterned textiles, the calligraphic text blocks, and the strong black-line figure poses.
