[絵本] 〔１〕箱根霊験躄仇討上

山村清助編 · 1885 · 堤吉兵衛 · 21 pictures

An 1885 Japanese illustrated picture book (ehon) published by Tsutsumi Kichibei and compiled by Yamamura Seisuke, aimed at a general reading public in Japan. Its pages pair woodblock-style figure scenes, showing samurai and townspeople in patterned kimono, with columns of Japanese text set around the figures. A designer might take the bold patterned textiles, the dense text-and-image layouts, and the dynamic sword-fight poses.
