[絵本] 〔３〕 伊賀越真書 上

泉竜亭是正 著, 守川周重 画 · 1880 · 荒川藤兵衛 · 17 pictures

An 1880 Japanese picture book (ehon) by writer Izumi Ryūtei Zesei with illustrations by Morikawa Chikashige, published by Arakawa Tōbei, presumably for a general reading audience. Its pictures are woodblock-style line illustrations of seated men in patterned kimono in tatami rooms, with vertical columns of Japanese text beside them, showing how a designer can use tight figure poses, patterned robes, and text-and-image layout.
