絵本義経勲功記
An 1887 Japanese woodblock-printed picture book (ehon) illustrated by Umedō Kunimasa and published by Fukagawaya, retelling the exploits of the warrior Minamoto no Yoshitsune. The pages show armoured samurai fighting in dark stylised landscapes, with Japanese text boxes set into the images; a designer could draw on their bold black-and-white contrast, dense hatched textures, and dynamic diagonal compositions.
