絵本足利軍記

山本常次郎 著 · 1888 · 隆湊堂 · 1 picture

An 1888 Japanese picture book (ehon) by Yamamoto Tsunejirō, published by Ryūsōdō, drawn as a woodblock-style print. The single picture shows a dense, high-contrast battle scene: a warrior in armour with a raised sword amid flying figures and a dark interior, with a patterned ornamental border. A designer could take its bold black-and-white figure silhouettes, dynamic diagonal composition, and decorative border framing for graphic work.
