[絵本] 〔１〕五人殲苦魔物語２編下

柳水亭種清編 · 1882 · 小林鉄次郎 · 17 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) compiled by Ryūsuitei Tanesei and published in 1882 by Kobayashi Tetsujirō, aimed at general readers of popular fiction. Its woodblock-style pages pair small blocks of kana text with full-page scenes of samurai-era characters at doors, screens and interiors, drawn in bold black outline with sparse hatching. A designer might borrow the dense text-and-image layout, the economical line work and the striped kimono patterns for editorial or poster compositions.
