桃渓 輯 · 1900 · 松山堂書店 · 56 pictures

A Japanese picture book (ehon) of painting models, compiled by Tokei and published by Shozando Shoten in 1900, offering examples of traditional ink painting for students and artists. The pictures are woodblock-printed ink studies of bamboo, rocks, pine trees, and mountain-edged pavilion landscapes, rendered in bold dark brushwork with loose, expressive outlines that suggest simple motifs a designer could adapt into compact graphic silhouettes.
