絵本大岡政談天一坊

牧金之助 編 · 1888 · 金寿堂 · 2 pictures

An 1888 Japanese illustrated book (ehon) edited by Maki Kinnosuke and published by Kinjudo, drawn in woodblock style with kabuki-like stage poses. The two pictures show richly patterned kimono and a stage-like setting, with dense black-and-white patterning that a designer could borrow for bold graphic textures and framing.
