Hakkakujō
A privately printed Kyoto catalogue of East Asian art from 1907, compiled by Kanō Jihē and documenting objects held in private collections, including paintings, pottery and jade. The three pictures are monochrome reproductions of hanging scroll paintings: a mountain landscape with a small figure and calligraphy, an ink study of rocky peaks and cliffs, and a bird perched on a branch beside blossoming flowers, all rendered in soft grey tones a designer could borrow for minimal layouts.
