[絵本] 〔１５〕国定忠次侠勇伝上

柳水亭種清編 · 1882 · 小林鉄次郎 · 35 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese illustrated book (ehon) published in 1882 by Kobayashi Tetsujiro, compiled by Ryusuitei Tanekiyo, with a woodblock-style print on each page beside lines of kana text. The pictures show samurai-era chivalrous outlaws in striped kimono, a sword fight among trees, and gambling scenes on mats, and a designer could take from them the bold black-and-white striped pattern and dynamic figure poses of Japanese popular print.
