[絵本] 〔２〕新編伊香保土産７編上

松林伯円編, 梅堂国政画 · 1880 · 松延堂 · 17 pictures

This is a Meiji-era Japanese illustrated picture book (ehon) published in 1880 by Shoendo, compiled by Matsubayashi Hakuen with illustrations by Umedo Kunimasa, aimed at general readers. Its woodblock-style pages pair kimono-clad figures seated in interiors with dense columns of Japanese text, and the figures' poses and patterned robes suggest compositional studies in layout, costume pattern and text-image balance.
