絵本稗史小説 第15集

1922 · 博文館 · 56 pictures

A 1922 Japanese illustrated book published by Hakubunkan, part of a picture-book series of popular fiction (ehon) in the old woodblock style. Its pictures are clean black-and-white line drawings of townspeople in rapid, comic moments, with bold dark patterned clothing and open composition; a designer might borrow the stripped-back ink line, the stylised kimono patterns and the lively gestures.
