絵本太閤記 4
Ehon Taikoki volume 4 is a Japanese illustrated picture book drawn by Hokkyo Gyokuzan and published in Tokyo by Kokusho Kankokai in 1917, reproducing an Edo-period woodblock series about Toyotomi Hideyoshi for general readers. The pictures are black-and-white reproductions of woodblock prints showing crowded castle walls, tiled roofs, bridges and mounted or walking figures in layered compositions with bird's-eye views and calligraphic captions, useful to a designer for dense, narrative line work and vertical text panels.
