絵本石山軍記
An 1888 Japanese illustrated book (ehon) by Murayama Ginjirō, published by the author, retelling the Ishiyama war chronicle for a general readership. The woodblock-style pictures show armoured warriors in battle and a formal council scene under calligraphic captions, with dense black ink masses for smoke and clouds. A designer could take the bold figure silhouettes, the strong black-and-white contrast, and the cloud-and-smoke patterning as graphic motifs.
