絵本通俗水滸伝 巻5
A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) published in 1898 by Sanshindō, a retelling of the Suikoden outlaw tales, with text credited to storyteller Momokawa Enrin and stenographer Imamura Jirō for a general popular readership. The pictures are black-and-white woodcut-style line illustrations with calligraphic captions in panels, showing a serpentine dragon coiling over a rocky shore beside a tiled-roof house, a figure with a staff beside a cart, a large scaled dragon near a cave, and a crowded fight scene; a designer might borrow their dense hatching, scaled pattern, and compact caption-and-image layouts.
