[絵本] 〔４〕小紫白井の実録

守川音次郎編 · 1880 · 小森宗次郎 · 19 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) compiled by Moriyama Otojiro and published by Komori Soujiro in 1880, with woodblock-printed pages mixing full-figure illustrations and columns of vertical Japanese text. The pictures show samurai and townspeople in dramatic poses, and a designer might take from them the bold black outlines, hatched patterned robes, and strong figure-to-text page layouts typical of late Edo-style prints.
